Life is a mirage in the desert
Whenever the thirsty me feels I am inching
towards the first drop of water and the greens
to quench my thirst, they vanish like a dream
Why is life never easy?
God has his ways of testing us
Some more than other
And believe me, he tests more the good ones
Like each one of us, he too desires
the good ones to remember him always
Thus he brings them more agony
It is a heartbreaking irony
I am a firm believer in God
On him my faith I have always focused
The more he has chosen to test me
The more I have sucked in my welled up tears
If life is a mirage
And every ounce of water I see would vanish
I possess the courage to dig my own well
Even if a million times I fail
I wonder if I should be angry with you my lord
For testing me a million times
Or be grateful you made me this strong
That I shatter to pieces and then stand up
strong
Self-motivation does help but honestly
Sometimes I feel caught up in this vicious trap
Where I fail to realize
If the road I have chosen is wrong or right
What I was and what I have become
But I shall not look back and repent
Life is too short to sit and sulk
I will rather make it worth
I agree things more often than not, don’t go my way
So what, I will still smile, embracing my deep pains
For life may be a mirage
But I have learned to dig my own well hard
And you, my lord, will help me in that
Let nothing let my faith evade
Life may not be a bed of roses
But I have now learned to smilingly befriend the thorns
P.S. I love to inspire myself this way, weaving words is therapeutic to my mental health.
