Look what success has to tell you!!!

 



He(Random person) created Several routes,

In the process of his indecisiveness,

This made all the scatterd thoughts seem clean,

Despite of all his mess.

The path he chose to run on,

May not seem right at this time..

But, wherever this route goes..

He will still dance to the tune of his dreams and take life as his Rhyme....

He dare to choose a destination, despite whatever his destiny could be,

There will also be a time with no indecisiveness....

Where, he is nothing else but 'ME'
