Balancing Act...

I bore the burden of sadness quite profound in me
Little did I realize that I had the grace of happiness too
More the agony, more the pain
More the sorrow, lesser the gain
The order was balanced in nature's justice
What mattered was which side to bend more
Influenced by true lies, under the garb of prejudice
The fight was against the negatives in abundance
And the little positives had to be resurrected
But soon I realized what seemed to be true
And I remained true thereafter
We can't have the good and the nice every time
A little struggle for a balanced state was all required
A readiness for what is at stake
A pro-activeness for what is coming
An accepting attitude to take life as it comes
A humbleness while acquiring knowledge ahead
All these were quite enough to suffice for peace
Dedication to mere work is being resevered
Dedication to life will give what is deserved
A life with a meaning in the making
An apt thought with an aim to accomplish
But by not ignoring the norms around
Not ignoring the conventions so bound
Not barring code of conducts that surround
Name it either being dynamic or being flexible
But not quite with diplomacy to sound political
