Standing against a fierce gale

A weighted pack upon my back

Taking on my largest fail

And using it to get on track

–

One step then two

Forward I move

My destination looms

As I get into my groove

–

Further, now I slowly progress

Pebbles and stones sting my face

Stepping into a new life was for the best

Your happiness will never go to waste

–

The steepness of this whistling hill

Is now slowly abating

Continuing the journey still

For a great future that’s waiting

–

The wind whips a final fury

As I reach the top of the hill

The final vertical awaits among the jury

As I reached the summit by my sheer will

–

I looked down from the top

And I can’t believe how far it goes

This phase, my evolution is at a stop

And I take stock of my previous woes

–

Who I am and who I’ll be

Was determined by this trek

The world will have to wait and see

My greatness versus the previous spec

–

Jubilation fills my heart

As I celebrate on this ridge

New exciting adventures will start

Now that I’ve crossed this shaky bridge

–

This is the end of the the beginning

Applying the lessons I’ve learned

This former loser now is winning

A life of happiness I have earned.

-aaa 🔥🔥🔥🔥
