Poetry

Honestly

I’m here, and I’m determined to stay even as I become overwhelmed and tired.

I keep moving towards the goal as I know the result will be worth it.

Even without a clear deadline, I’m moving towards the finish line for staying in this box, knowing I’m meant for more.

So I block you out today as I don’t want to complain or hear you complain as if the matter matters to you.

You want to have everyone on your side, even if your side is wicked.

And I won’t stand for it, for I’m ready for more light in my life, not darkness and lies.
