Lost Cause

A burning passion, a will to do good
He set out one day ,knowing he should
His cause was just,
But he wouldn't be the first


For many other passionate youth like him
Had had this thought of fighting for the same cause
A just and right cause -
But had failed to win.


He was too young ...
Too young to comprehend
But armed with valor and his noble wish,
Furious anger and a cold steely rage -
he thought he would win.


He kept working day and night
For His cause was right
He promised himself he wouldn't rest
Until he'd accomplished His quest.


The cause drained Him of life
It took away all his time
He kept working harder and harder
And prayed to God for a sign


After all..His cause was noble ..
'Twas just and right
He was up for the fight..
And needed no one by his side


Then suddenly it dawned on Him
What a fool he'd been !
The cause would be lost ..
His passion,though just ..
would all end in dust.



While striving and fighting..
He'd stopped living life.
Stopped all his pleasures..
And let The cause take all his time .


So he decided to start afresh
He'd be working for his quest
But now with friends -
For advise,support and rest.


Let his be a lesson
To all young souls
Fight in numbers...then maybe ...
A cause won't be lost no more.

Sometimes in life , no matter how motivated or passionate one is about wanting to achieve something good .. its not possible without other's help .
