Drowning, I stretched my hands.....

Drowning,I stretched my hands for a straw
The high waves pushed me back
And the turbulent river warned me
Threatening me of dire consequences
Thundering clouds roared on me with a caution
Not to indulge in a fatal venture
None was there to help me and rescue
My cries invain,none came in the circumstances
Disheartened,dismayed and disappointed
Beaten by waves,crushed and tired
I felt like succumbing to onslaught
Becoming a softy, neutrally submitting to attacks
'NO'came the reply from my conscience
cajoling me for my lapse and languor
With the command to rise,relive and fight
Fight the hurdles undaunted whatever the setbacks.
