Blind Ambition
You are what you do daily,
Simply look around you
It’s plain to see
From the ebb and flow
Of human endeavor
Creating a sense of worth
In you and me.
You see the habits we form
During the course of our lives
Determines if we succeed or fail,
And it’s not always about
Being bold and strong,
Sometimes you need
To be humble and frail.
Behavior is relevant
In more ways than one
It shapes who and what
We will be,
For if you have no vision
Or ambition to go with it then,
It’s your life your wasting you see.
