DEMOTIVATION!
Today, in this fast paced & extremely competitive lifestyle, "Demotivation" is a very common feeling and sometimes you do feel undermined to the point you wanna give up. At times we lose all hope and stop trusting our own abilities due to various reasons (unfair comparisons, etc. etc. etc.). This poem is about stating to believe in yourself and how to rediscover your motivation and drive forward towards success!
It goes something like this........
Demotivation
Hope subject to such dire situations are only a few!
Constantly other's success being demanded to replicate,
Alas, why dealt with such a cruel fate!
How can I? I often sigh;
For I may have forgotten how to fly!
Forcefully submerged deep below;
Only negativity in the mind continues to flow!
Looking at others, all shine and glitter;
Never before felt so bitter!
A shine so bright, and with luster;
It causes my thoughts to fluster!
As my memories of the highs continue to fade,
Success as well, tends to evade!
Looking at my reflection in the broken pieces, I realize;
The quest for a glue, will forever remain in vain,
There always was, a remedy for my pain!
At the gates of success;
It does not matter, the fate been dealt;
If the winds through my wings I could have felt!
With my heart heavy, my brow full of blood and sweat,
Is it to late to realize what was the real threat?
Hoping for a day with brighter weather,
I begin to stitch my pieces together!
Toes twitching, nervous about facing the winds again,
I close my eyes, thinking about all there is to gain!
With a steady push, I take flight,
On myself, should have never felt plight!
As I gaze with hope down below,
at last happy again, and mellow!
As the wind once more ripples through my wings at a fearful rate,
Hopefully, I now realize the true meaning of motivate!!
