PRICE

The Cost of Every Pursuit

By The Writer Published about a month ago 1 min read

In life's grand theater, a profound truth

Echoes are resonating clearly from a booth.

For nothing comes without a cost to bear,

In every triumph, the farewell is shown by a tear.

 

Each dream pursued, each goal attained,

Demands a price, a sacrifice ordained.

For every step forward, there is a choice to make.

To give of oneself, to bend, to break.

 

The path to greatness, paved with toil,

Where sweat and blood enrich the soil.

For every victory, a battle fought,

A toll exacted, a lesson taught.

 

In love's embrace, a tender bloom,

Yet even roses bear thorns of gloom.

For hearts entwined, a price to pay,

In joys shared and sorrows shared, come what may.

 

The treasures sought, both far and near,

In realms of gold or skies so clear,

Require a pledge, a vow, a vow,

To strive, to seek, to claim somehow.

 

So heed this truth, embrace it well,

In every tale that life does tell.

For nothing comes without a fee,

You must pay the price to truly be.
