Climbing
It’s easy to say
“When you fall, get back up again”
But it’s not as easy to do.
The fall could be small,
Or just as you reach the top,
You fall to the bottom.
The struggle is there
Whereas perseverance isn’t always there.
Humans are constantly involved with the climb of life.
Some people have it rough.
There struggle for life is finding food,
Finding a warm place to stay.
They strive to put their children first,
For them to have a better life.
Other people are lucky.
They have food and the necessities.
They’re striving for a social status and money,
Instead of struggling to live.
We all have struggles.
They can be polar opposites,
But we as humans are always
Slipping and sliding.
Trying to find our footing.
