You Also Can

Nothing is preventing you from being the best,
Not even illiteracy dares to question your quest,
       Don’t sit idle , 
   act and you would be able.
     You having a special talent,
To give you excellent
     Don’t waste your time
 liberate your mind,
   you may encounter the enemies  
But that shouldn't prevent your allies
Try forgetting the pains
For there follows the praise,
Now is not the time to stop
Time is running, climb to the top
         Just follow the rules
 and you would never be off the goal 
Start scratch from where you stand
For yes you can
 escape the lower and climb the tower
And you'll see your power 
Don’t rely on tomorrow
For that is a ticket to borrow

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
