Overcome the Dark

Light may make things bright
But darkness is the real light
Once you have overcome the dark
You never need to hide

For those who fear the dark
Ready to eat you up are many a shark
But if you go on and defy the odds
You will surely make a mark

You may bask in the glory of achieving something
But someday you may lose everything
But once you have failed
You learn to live with anything

You will have your days
But sometimes failure will make hay
But if you are strong enough
You will make your way

As it is

In life's twists and turns
Try to make things simple
Its not tough to learn
If you try to make things simple

We cry and we complain
but cant we take it as it is
a plateau will never be a plain
so cant we take it as it is

Days will be good and bad
if only we look at the positives
life wont be sad
if only we look at the positives

It may or not be true
but do consider these views
trivial will seem life's blues
so just consider these views

Rat Race

Everyone competes in this rat race
some win but many lose
among them some lose with grace
others just lose their face

Its not that I dont like to win
but why someone has to lose
on someone's sorrow I grin
this adversarial nature just doesnt sink in

What do we want this world to be
People ready to kill each other
Will they do this with glee
some may but not me

I may be considered a fool
but I have my heart in place
with this I cant be "Cool"
On others' peril I cant rule
