THE PAIN OF LOSING TO YOURSELF
For me life is suppose to be a fight between you and yourself.
A fight to the death, were you’re supposed to push for success.
Only after when you came face to face with your greatest enemy,
Which in this case, the greatest enemy of yourself is yourself.
Sky is the limit only applies to those who are ready conquered life ground up.
Because one step forward is one step to greatness.
Walk with caution and be ready to mitigate the progress-hindering factors,
Because among all things, losing to yourself has a greatest AGONY of them all.
Finding meaning in the art of survival, pushing to thrive in life.
Engaging by means of debating with one’s inner void.
Even if you act to self-preserve what’s left of your own wreckage,
You’ll only find pain stitched with shame no veil can cover.
For when I’m pale I endure, because I’m becoming.
For I know my purpose.©
