Starting as an infant
I noticed many things from a distance
Beginning like a novice
I noticed many stories
And trying to get into the world of knowledge
I got the privilege
Getting into the mysterious world
Which I cannot describe precisely with words
I never expected some set back
Which I later fought back
I suffered rejection
Which led me into total dejection
I asked myself, “Can I make a headway?â€
Something keeps telling me, “You are on the way!â€
My drivers drove me into the wilderness
Then I was in a total darkness
They were too hostile
Just like a crocodile
I had to face many things on my own
Yet they pretended not to have known
Just in the same vein
Many things went in vain
I kept the ball of struggle rolling
And the flag of hope flying
And I asked myself again, “Can I make headway?â€
“Hey! It’s good to have a sound mind, you are on the wayâ€
It got to a point I was thinking of my siblings
But I was compelled by situation to hold my feelings
Despite how tedious the journey was, I was optimistic
Although they knew I would not relent, still they were pessimistic
They tried to kill my morale
I sustained with sound moral
Always in my realm
I realise I am Gem
Now it’s my slogan “Don’t settle for lessâ€
Cos you have been blessed
