To Believe
___________________________
The struggle within
To reach for the sky
The passion
The drive
Your heart knows
What your brain is afraid to recognize
Within you lies your greatness
You need only to believe in yourself
Like seeds in the ground
With nurturing they’ll sprout
Don’t give in to yourself doubt
Like all things in life
Greatness
Comes with a price
To toil and sweat
All the hard work that you dread
The inspiration you have
Within your head
Outlines your way
But sometimes
You try and you fail
Don’t give up
With Each failing some knowledge is gained
Those seeds of your greatness are now growing like beautiful plants
Those that reach for the stars and succeeded are those with vision and courage
Far too many falls by the wayside
Broken and discouraged
Remember this
Greatness
Does not mean
Recognition by others
Or
Great wealth
Greatness
Can be the satisfaction
Within
Oneself!
