Sometimes a jolt is needed, to revive a dying man,
Sometimes the bridges are burnt, and you are left, without a backup plan.
Sometimes you learn to swim, only when pushed in a pool,
Sometimes you need to start afresh, though you may look like a fool.
Sometimes the habit of a chain, makes the calf unaware of its strength,
Sometimes despite maturing, you can't go the extra length.
Sometimes you forget the skies, a price steep enough, for the comfort of a cage,
Sometimes you need to boil and simmer, before transitioning, to a new phase.
Sometimes you want to jump from planes, with the safety of a chute,
Sometimes you try to change the course, with a force that is brute.
Sometimes the world conspires, and frees you from your rock,
Sometimes you can't follow your dreams, thinking what will people talk.
I've been tossed and crushed against my will, I'm down but not out,
I've reached the nadir of my life, now the only way is up - no doubt!
