I refuse to fail

It remains my struggle
To keep my wishes afloat,
A fight all day,
in a lane remote,
Where I paint my dreams
and believe them true,
unknowing, unaware,
of the hills I drew.
But dream I do
and the fight continues
I want them fulfilled,
Unreal though they seem,
my wishes, my dreams,
now are me,
and imbibed in my esteem.
And I refuse to fail
Whatever the fall
Will fight till I last
Till I lose it all!

Brought up to lead
To climb to succeed
Never did I fathom
A fall so deep
Disillusioned, defeated
And wounded I lay
On the grave of my dreams
My soul decays

I cant see them broken,
But helpless I lie
As sorrow and anger
Slowly makes me cry
This anguish I can’t bear
And warily I hear
My spirit sailing away
As helpless I lay

Days I try, to start afresh
To drown the sorrow
And look ahead
And march right up
With the passion, the zeal
But the agony of failure
Won’t let the wounds heal

Now the dream is shaken
and the will is broken
But with each sunrise
Slowly the time flies
And I see the light
Atop the hills
It flushes my veins
And kills the pains
And grows the will
To start again!

Hope is the light
Which guides me ahead
And persist I to move
Till my will approves
With the light alive
My strength revives,
Might to no avail,
But still
I refuse to fail.
