For some its a crown on their head,
For some another jewel on their way ahead.
One after the other people always strive,
Once achieved there is nothing they grieve.

Achieved by a lot of sacrifices,
Friends, family and by paying a lot of prices.
In their prime, Instead of partying and enjoying,
They worked hard and made it their craving.

Brick by Brick they build an empire,
By learning from their peers in their career.
Once reached, they do not feel superior,
True ones, ensure to pull others higher.

The false ones always leave trials of sorrow,
Leaving down whose knowledge they borrowed.
Not caring for anyone, forgetting their trails,
And everything they achieved by multiple failures

It shouldn’t hit one’s head with its allure,
As people tend to forget who once cared,
Where they come from and who was with them,
It feels like it is the fault of this corporate system.

Be happy for others who achieve it,
Focus on yourself and mentally stay fit.
Work on self improvement and growth,
One fine day all will be of worth.
