When the muck of dashed ambitions
Makes the unending walk of life tough.
When the see-saw of joys and failures
Makes the head rest heavily on the body.

When the going gets tough and hopeless
When the remaining path seems so long.
Then stop; stop this internal warfare
Stop this race, this roller-coaster of life.

Let the mind step back and breathe easy.
Let it re calibrate, let it be in judgement
Of what is important, what it likes
And of what was done only for the 'race'.

Hold back, this violent stream of ambitions
Harness the energy of this blithe restlessness.
And then one day, when the time is right
Let go, in majestic fashion, this energy.
