Analysis of Continuous Struggle



Love goes up and touches the peak
When tongue is silent, heart speak
What we hide and what we leak
Beauty of beloved is what we seek

Life is a journey through ups and downs
Where we seldom wear the crown
Souls are bright, bodies are brown
Whether we are cities or in towns

But it remains the order of the day
For what we ask for what we pray
As light travels through a light ray
Continuous struggle never goes astray
