Ironic It May Seem

Fear has become the only emotion.
Several attempts, striving so diligently.

Never seemed to matter,
destined to be defeated.
Difficulty becoming that of which is well deserved.

Never seemed to matter, just didnt end up that way.
Somewhat unfortunate,
Although apprectiation seeps in,
true fortune of self dignity.

Shame not rendered,
Pride not blinding,
Openness quite satisfying.

Invigorating it seems,
this power of self intellect.
Mind is free from restriction.
Mind is free from perfection.
