For some its a crown on their head,
For some another jewel on their way ahead.
One after the other people always strive,
Once achieved there is nothing they grieve.

Achieved by a lot of sacrifices,
Friends, family and by paying a lot of prices.
In their prime, Instead of partying and enjoying,
They worked hard and made it their craving.

Brick by Brick they build an empire,
By learning from their peers in their career.
Once reached, they do not feel superior,
True ones, ensure to pull others higher.

The false ones always leave trials of sorrow,
Leaving down whose knowledge they borrowed.
Not caring for anyone, forgetting their trails,
And everything they achieved by multiple failures

It shouldn’t hit one’s head with its allure,
As people tend to forget who once cared,
Where they come from and who was with them,
It feels like it is the fault of this corporate system.

Be happy for others who achieve it,
Focus on yourself and mentally stay fit.
Work on self improvement and growth,
One fine day all will be of worth.

Anger is a normal emotional reaction,
Might lead to regrettable action.
Usually resulting in negative outcomes,
So learn to control your impulses sometimes.

Keeping your anger at bay is a skill,
Inhale through nose, through mouth you exhale.
Tense and slowly relax your muscles,
Like solving some kind of puzzles.

Pour all your anger out by writing,
And then destroy it by burning.
Let your emotions out by expressing,
Yet, you won't gain anything, by harming.

Visualize your happiest moments,
With your loved ones, ignore the torments.
Give your whole energy on self, as it will calm,
To others and self, do not cause any harm.

Blaming others has never helped,
On yourself, be focused.
Practice phrases or words that helps you control,
Visualize a pleasant scene being real.

Do things which get you bursting out laughing,
Music has been quite cathartic.
For anger is like a venom within,
For which, silence is the best medicine.

If used wisely, it can be your weapon,
but do not use it on someone.
Helps us with challenging goals,
who doesn't understand this remains a fool.

Motivation is a key for your lifecycle
Like a starter to your vehicle,
When you are down or laziness engulfs.
A kick to start, you give yourself.

Whatever you do, do it with passion,
Pat yourself for your devotion.
The world is very cruel,
Never, ever, don’t yourself belittle.

Like spices in your daily cuisine,
Add enthusiasm to your life's routine.
When dreams seem far like a star's shine,
Keep your focus sharp and always be keen.

The path is often rough and steep,
But persistence will let you reap.
Every challenge is a lesson as life’s gift,
Let your soul rise and let your spirit accept.

Rise from setbacks with new power,
Turn your darkness into light forever.
For success is not merely a tiny spark,
But an endless journey through the dark.

When you feel stuck and not growing
Analyze yourself and come to a conclusion
When your senses trigger of separation,
Make motivation an addiction.

An emotional feeling and expression,
That stirs the heart with much commotion.
Some express it through aggression,
While others find themselves in depression.

Sadness, like the weather, keeps on changing,
An unwanted weight that keeps on hanging.
Often masked as grief, jealousy, or stress,
Insecurity or anguish, better to suppress..

Sadness is an emotion we cannot escape,
Like the cycle of day and night, it takes many shapes.
A ride which doesn’t get you anywhere,
Knowing and accepting should be your prayer.

Experienced by everyone across the world,
A loss of someone or something, be brave and bold.
Disappointment to despair and quiet suffering,
These emotional states keep occurring.

Rejection from family, a friend, or lover,
Sickness or death of a loved one we suffer.
It signals our need for help and care, be keen,
Seek comfort and a shoulder to lean.

Sadness, one of the enduring emotions we bear,
Circulates through times of protest and despair.
When the sun sets and darkness takes its turn,
Know that sadness will fade, and joy will return.

In many ways I was broken,
No matter what, never was shaken,
All my happiness is now taken,
My emotions ran behind you, leaving forsaken…

My sorrows, an incident well-orchestrated,
My happiness was buried deep and now it has departed
From my life, which was very well decorated,
You arrived, now into pieces it’s shattered…

My world is dark and quiet with your absence,
Everything around me looks empty, all at once,
However far, no matter the distance,
On this earth, I will cherish your existence…

My heart wants to pour love as a shower,
So your memories will bloom like a flower,
My emotions within runs like a wild river,
My love for you is forever…

In your departure, my pain unfurls,
A heartbreak, how my tale swirls.
Painted with sadness on the love I laid,
A farewell in colors, you portrayed.

You painted me in color of grey and blue,
For I am a monster, but not entirely true.
The pain of being cast as the villain,
In a story that left my soul chillin'.

Yet deeper lies another pain,
Born from society's judgments, plain.
Various unkind opinions born,
Judging me of things I have not done.

But in this pain, a new beginning takes root,
Strength rising from all the dispute.
For in your leaving, a chance to reclaim,
The colors of self, to self-love, I proclaim.

Let pain be a temporary art,
A chapter of pain, not the whole book of heart.
May healing wash away all conflicts & strife,
And reveal with a newfound life.

All my life I was living like a warrior,
You made me realise how my nights could be scarier.
Seems like, in your thoughts I will be lost,
As the days with you are not going past.

Every time I cry for you, my tears taste sweeter,
But your feelings toward me were always bitter.
I wanted to show you heaven on earth,
Yet you pushed me to hell which questions my worth.

All that you did has damaged my soul,
None who can hear my haul.
A journey together I expected,
But you portrayed a colourful hatred.

Your thoughts are immortal and entwined,
That I won’t be able to purify my mind.
Your presence filled in the air I breathe,
A haunting grace, that doesn’t give sooth.
