The Unwritten Book

Rain drops, more like bullets
cut the skin, shower intense
yet we carry on
it’s a test, we say
We got to come through

Streams of mud
impossible to tread
so we jump in
it’s a test, we say
we got to come through

Life at risk
doctor giving up
we take up matters
it’s a test, we say
we got to come through

Getting over the line
that line always in view
if not in eyes, in mind
but always in view

Wise man once said
its not the highest mountain
but the pebble in the shoe
now with no line in sight
how do you get over it?

The biggest test of all
keep at it and one day
things will change, or you
yes it’s also a test
we say and,
we got to come through

Every layer peeled
is a problem healed
yet there will be a shout
next layer, tougher
never ending bout
rounds after rounds
who is winning?
still no one
hence the question

Answer lies in the book
not yet written, still
hanging by the hook
it will end the bout
both without any clout
they will rise
mountains will be climbed
pebbles, will lay in demise.
