You Struggle And Hustle

You struggle 

And hustle

Hard

To part

With financial difficulties 

Biting you with their metal teeth 

Like insects made of steel


Nobody sees the fears

Fermenting in tears

In silence 


One day the weakling seedling 

Becomes a giant, taking its seat

Among the tall trees 

Stared from the corners of the eyes 

By envious haters

Who do not know how long

This journey has been
