Fishing the Future

Ten digits are all I have
To grab every single chances in the air
I want to hold them all even
However full as they are
They can never be too much.

I've traded my all for a piece
of recognition
Which everyone judges you upon
I'm seeing my fellow friends fishing
on a boat in the sea, while
I'm here building a bigger boat.

Why and what have I to prove
but intelligence and hardwork?
Will I reap what I sow?
Why did I not choose to fish like the others
but to build a bigger boat?

Will I lose touch with Present
while I'm busy chasing after Future?
Will I not have bitter sweet memories
while I'm busy creating one for my later days?
God bless me with strength so this boat can be
set sailing in the sea.

    things that others can't see!

    Foundation building is of utmost
    important to ensure a smoother ride!

    Planning and Preparation serve as a key
    to prepare for the locked uncertainties!

    Better Future is not free,
    It needs people like you to
    go step by step to the path of success!
