Behind

Behind

Behind every great achievement
lies a great story
behind every great story
is an extraordinary writer
behind this story it is I 
the great fighter

What happens in the past
is left behind
whatever happens in the present
is forever kept
but whatever happens in the future
is still yet to come

Behind every great rower
lies great water
but behind every poet
lie great words within

Behind my great time
has great vibes
but whatever is left
behind now
it is the love between you and I
