I was clever,
privy to secrets,
to the pattern of the world.
Tiny I was,
everything came easy to me,
and struggle nor work,
did I.
I am struggling.
Work overwhelms me,
and I try to run away.
Procrastination has become my friend,
and I hang my head in shame,
now realising how work
is not for the weak willed.
Now I realise,
and I now I learn,
not leave everything on hope,
and try to earn
I will have something in the future,
a strong willed mind
that won't break under pressure.
An asteroid that no gas giant will stop.
I will have will,
and be who I want to be,
my path will lay among the stars,
a blazing trail for all to see.
