When dreams buckle beneath their weight

And it’s time to move forward,

Realism tells one greatness will have to wait.

When force’d to neglect Momentum’s bell

In a drawn-out Sofie’s choice

To simply allow the past to crumbell,

When I admit breakeven will take a while,

Resaddling my neglected horse

Exacts a humility I cannot reconcile.

I am a new animal

Wiser than before

This time primal.

Leaving nothing to chance

Motivation and doom, goals and hurdles

A spiraling seductive dance

Focus

Now, the only stopping me is me

Focus
