Onwards
So much I wish to do
But to myself I must always be true
Stepping above self doubt I feel
Close my eyes my nerves become steel
Just mustering up the will
So far I wish to go
So much I wish to know
First step is all it will take
A new life you could make
Meeting head on any fear
A open heart means an open ear
Daring to find your own way
In the robotic world of today
On different they frown
Put you down
Hard to step from
Bur still , so far I have come
Past the well from which I started
Kept going when all hope had parted
The fire
That fuels my desire
To reach ever hire
Burns deep
Even times I weep
Don't know
Still I go
Onwards
Fowards
Blazing my own trail
Can't fail.
Time will tell
