Patience

A Poem

It's like you build a building

Brick by brick

You build your life too

with patience day by day

It's like the speed breaker

That comes between the

Speed of your car

It makes you to slow down

For your own safety and to go far

It comes between anything

Which you want to do in hurry

And even frustrates you

It's purpose is not to make

You to completely halt

But to slow down

and make you to think

Like say anger that attacks

and takes over your mind

atleast for a while

For your patience can

even slow down your anger

Sometimes it makes you

not to give up

Even when you get the

feeling that everything

is over

But still you continue

with your purpose

Even the stuborn wall

may turn it's back

And you'll find yourself

on the other side

No longer facing the wall.
