I am .....

Some say life is like Money,
And the others say Money is life.
Both of which are true albeit the circumstances.
Money for me has never been the motivator,
The harder you chase her, the farther she runs away. 
I am Gail , because wherever she roams, she will find a way back to me.

History, Literature and Mythology revel in creating the ideal man,
The truth of life is we all have our fallacies,
We all have our own failings ..... imperfections.
That one thing that you crave for when everything is going just fine.
I am Karna , because I shall never get what my heart desires the most.

You had your words, that you used to get you everything you wanted,
But now the words are not enough, they are just not good enough.
You are asked to give it all away, your words are now worthless.
You feel like a One horse pony, with just one show to put on.
I am Eklavya , my words my right thumb which I am asked to give away.

All your life, your only job has been to make others happy.
Laughing and playing tricks day in and day out.
The smiles your elixir to life, the lifeline to your other miseries.
The Jiggery pokery called life just moves on and carries on.
I am the clown, the smiles I look to give away to cover my miseries.

You have been pushed down, you have made mistakes.
You have sinned and may never cross St Peter's hallow.
But you have never asked for another chance, and no one gave you one either.
But you have always risen from the muck and all the dirt.
I am the phoenix, the phoenix who rises from the ashes.

I am Gail , because wherever she roams, she will find a way back to me.
I am Karna , because I shall never get what my heart desires the most.
I am Eklavya , my words my right thumb which I am asked to give away.
I am the clown, the smiles I look to give away to cover my miseries.
I am the phoenix, the phoenix who rises from the ashes.
