Success

There is a path where we all travel alone,
You follow someone until one day that someone becomes a no one..
The light which leads you through the path is a myth,
There is darkness and treachery  underneath the sheath.

Sometimes you do the people way and at times the other way,
Until you finally learn to persuade..
You strive for a companion throughout 
Even when you find many until 
You decide you don't need any..

In the beginning you kept account for each and every step,
After which you heedlessly skipped a lot of steps..
Your pace dragged you into a blind diversion..
And suddenly you discover a path of illusion.

You narrow down your ways and the path becomes steeper,
You have become weak and the weak have become stronger..

The journey slows down and that someone whom you followed is nowhere to be found..
Your close associates have sufficed to those who cared for their presence..

You are left out wandering for a distinct essence..

Walking and humming along into another epic of success...
