Measurement

Measurement in life

Days moving on and thrive

What is called success of life?

Putting up a fight.

Flashing before us, as if on cruise

What measurements do we use?

Measurement in feelings

Grief, lost and dealing

What is called happiness of life?

Trying to fight.

Hearts broken and bruised

What measurements do we use?

Measurements in perfection

Perfect body, face, selection

What is called excellence of life?

Failing from the fight.

Surrender, hurt and abused

What measurements do we use?

A/N: I wrote this poem with a theme in mind and it's, you've guessed it, Measurement. 

Inspiration: 

 I've always been the one to compare myself with others,to measure my success, happiness,etc;and it got me thinking. When do we clarify something that its happy? Successful? Excellent? What units or measurement should we use?

I hope you enjoy this poem and I would love to hear your comments on this.

Loads of love, Mirror XX)
