Knowing I Can
I have constructed a plan
it feels like the one,
Although usually once we say this
something comes undone,
To do this on my own
feels like a herculean task,
But the good things in life
don't come easily nor fast.
I know I will succeed
and the road ahead is bumpy,
The rise and fall of every hill
makes the ride a little jumpy.
Where is the fun in a perfectly laid out path?
With everything in plain sight,
We need those hidden monsters
so we can learn how to fight.
I would hate to spend my life thinking
'Oh what if I could?'
Instead I will live it knowing I can
Working for the greater good.
