.....And miles to go before i sleep : Inspirational Poetry

And Miles to Go Before I Sleep

Here I am lying in warm , comfortable Virgin Soil ,
Not even realizing , what people face in the world are turmoils !
“ I am just a young Sapling “ can be the excuse I make ,
No ! The world can even prove now , that you are fake !

But , then . . . . I need to see the world now ,
I can’t still be protected for years in a row !
The blood in my veins , pound every time I dream ,
And I know , it ain’t as easy as eating ice-cream !

My dream can make people burst out in Laughter ,
“ Negative thoughts plus Childhood Problems “ I would mutter ,
I can’t waste , my breath , trying to prove me right ,
Since I know my dream will ease every heart from catching a fright !

It’s everything to me , and its close to being completed ,
But I didn’t boast “ Just another Solution for a problem “ I uttered !
Some would bless me for a safer world to live ,
And Some might actually believe I’m rolling in money and Jive !

You can never have “ Lady Victory “ all the time ,
Its the number of times you roll in the thorns , to get Prime !
Later after my dream was achieved ,
I finally sat on my couch a little upheavaled !

Before I could realize what was happening ,
I was smiling about something !

“ Ah ! Give yourself a Vacation “ said my thoughts ,
“ No , the game ain’t over yet “ , I said aloud .
I am still young , not old to creep ,
Besides there are Million more Miles to go before I sleep !
