Knowing Myself

"Who am I?",
That question lingers in my mind.
"May I know why ?",
I have always whined.

Things gradually became clear,
I got a purpose in life.
The life became dear,
I decided to strive.

I have decided,
The goals are set.
I am determined,
I have to surely get.

Obstacles are there,
I do agree.
Dreams you get where,
All are absolutely free.

There's looking back,
Until I succeed.
Using no short-cut or hack,
I plan to lead.
