Rebound

He sits looking at the sky searching for calm,
Even the morning breeze has lost its charm.

The dream is shattered once again,
Everything planned went haywire, yet again.

Every breath tires him,
Even the chirping birds seem to mock him.

But this isn't the first nor the last time,
Howsoever dark the night, the sun shall shine one more time.

It is the sweet taste of victory that he desires,
For which he has to continue to perspire.

One moment of glory shall wipe away all the pain,
And life will seem precious and happy once again.

So once again, rise and fight.
Take up the challenge with all your might.

Once again, rise and fight,
Quit not till you see the light...
