Stairway To Heaven

It was at that moment,
when i realised my dream,
the goal that i want to achieve in my life,
but oh boy!, that path wasn't a cream

so i took the first step,
decided upon the means
i set out to conquer 
the kings and the queens

hurdles came dancing in my path
obstacles were like pavement,
but yeah! i crossed the next step while 
i was under the hindrances' enslavement

Failure too came 
stopped by,
showed me their dirty face
but no, i didn't fall back
i carried on the race

This endurance went over
 for a year,
within which i lost a few 
and found new dears

Then the results came,
i was scared
who wouldn't be when it shows 
how you fared

The result came anyways,
and what!!!!i succeeded with flying colors!
On that day i felt as if crossed the final hurdle
the dream came true which I've for so long woven
and with that my friends i crossed the stairway to heaven

yeah it felt like heaven on earth,
indeed it does 
when your dream comes true, 
which is your life's worth
