Story of a Breadwinner



Day and Night,
People fight,
Yet they are
Just so Far,
From this dark Tunnel's End light.


No Mercy,
No Pity,
This Cruel world,
Crushes them with all its might.

Yet,
Up they get,
Shake off the dust,
And double their Bet,
Never losing sight,
of their Target.

And in the end,
After all the amends,
Sacrifices and Adjustments,
The wall is breached,
And his goals achieved.

This is the story of  a bread winner,
with several mouths to feed,
Who is lost in that task,
To reduce the burden on those who succeed.

Not the orthodox style of writing. Experimenting with words and Paragraph placements. Hope you enjoy it.
