AGAINST ALL ODDS

by LoNeLy SoUL   Apr 3, 2007


It is just an ordinary fish
Swimming freely in that creek
It doesn't have glossy scales
Nor shining fins!

It doesn't even swim gracefully
Its movement bored me at all!
Really, that fish seems out of place,
In that wonderful creek!

Though that 'lil creature
Will be move out from its place
No one will give a damn I think
Coz for them, its life is meaningless!

Oh! How I pity that creature
Striving hard thou always left abandoned
Oh! How I envy its unwavering courage
So stubborn to gain honor in its punishing environment!

Once I was like that fish
So worthless and ugly as what they perceived
It's really hard to move with that milieu
Yet I pull off strings to make my poor life a success!

And as I look back on those painful years
I can't help but smile and offer praise
If I let myself be affected of what they think
Probably, I'll never be on this TOP so happy and contented!

So folks, here's a piece of advice
Very ordinary as you maybe
Or unworthy as what they claim you to be
Learn to TRUST yourself... have FAITH in God
Surely in the end, they will think of you
As the other way around!
