STRUGGLES OF EVERY STEEMIAN (An Original Poetry)

So you are here, just like me,
Working head to toe to earn some steem, 💸
thinking different ways to get a few votes,👍🏻
using bellyrub, randowhale and upgoats!🐐

But it doesn’t work much,
and you beat your head,🤦🏻‍♀
because after seven days
your posts goes dead.💀

That post, on which you spent a week, 📝
for which you researched on net like a geek.👓
You thought and typed and rechecked so many times, 🙇🏻‍♀
only for readers to ignore it like blinds?🤷🏻‍♀

Damn it, you get frustrated!! 😖
To see all your effort becoming a wastage, 💩
but then you see huge dollars on the trending posts, 💰
you again get motivated & your depressed self gets lost. 👻

Then you post again,📝
promote it like a crazy man.🙇🏻
On steemitchat, on Discord, on FB and Instagram,📱
you try ALL platforms, you even try to SPAM ! 👨🏻‍💻

But still what you earn is just 2-3 extra votes 👍🏻,
you wonder if there is something wrong with people
or something wrong with your posts?🤔

You try new promotional techniques,
try praising people from India, Asia, Africa or Greece,
you make random comments to gain attention 🔆
you vote, follow, tag and mention. 🔗

Fail, fail, fail !! After so many tries, ☹
Okay! I will leave steemit, you finally decide. 😑
But then curie or a random Whale upvotes you,
and again, you get emotional & change your choice.🙀

Trapped again by the only website,🖥
where your talent has a chance to shine real bright,🌟
you again put time, again put efforts,👩🏻‍💻
with a vision to increase your steem networth💵,

You beg for votes from people, 🙏🏻
you make deals to vote back, 🤝
you ask others to follow for follow,👉🏻
you unwillingly chat.😓

But how can anyone chat so much,😧
that too, when you have SO MANY Discord servers. 🙆🏻
How can you write, promote and gossip all together, 🤷🏻‍♂
and read and comment further.🤦🏻‍♀

So you drop the idea and cease to chat,🙅🏻‍♂
you stay awake late night like a bat 🦇
thinking of new ideas, to increase some views, 👀
trying to hit the section TRENDING and not just the NEW !! 🗣

Then you participate in a bucket full of contests,🥊
and hope to win them all, 🏆
only to realise that not a single window 🖼,
was struck by your ball ⚾.

Then you SPAM people’s posts with COMMENTS,📥
until someone warns you to flag your spams. 🚩
What to do? What to do? You think again,😰
wasting time on making a new plan 📈.

And then you decide to attract a Whale,🐋
painting their pictures, following their trails, 🎨
commenting on their wall, saving your fall, 🤹🏻‍♀
but Oh My God, you fail again! 👎🏻

You sit there expressionless,
not knowing what to do? 😞
Whether leave it down there,
or should you continue❓

You read people’s lengthy posts and leave quality comments, ✍🏻
but until how long would you read, just to keep a hold of them?✊🏻

But look at you, even after such a huge fall,🥀
you still have strength to stand tall🕴🏻
You still don’t give up, you are still trying, 🏃🏻
look, you are already a winner, why are you crying?🤷🏻‍♀

Your votes might not be increasing, but your followers are, 👬
your dollars might not be rising, but your reputation has jumped so far. 🤾🏻‍♀

Big things take big-time, 🕛
keep patience until you are confined, 😌
your time will come quick, if you keep up your pace, 🏃🏻‍♀
ENJOY THIS PLATFORM, don’t take it as a race.❌

Fail a 100 times to be successful once, 🏅
Trust me, that once would be enough then,
because someday you will be noticed,
this place is full of good men 👨🏼‍⚖.

Be prepared for failures, 🤥
don’t take them seriously, 🙂
provide value, provide help, don’t behave viciously. 😏

And the most important is that you post to enjoy, 🤠
earning is just a bonus, Oh boy !!😎

Be happy when you receive it, but when not, don’t cry, 😅
do here WHAT YOU LOVE, and wait for it to reach the sky. 💫
