I Believe in Me (a Poem)
Often I feel
nothing goes right
when I decide a path
make a plan
begin a journey.
There are starts and stops
mistakes
wrong turns
over and over
but again I try.
Determined to make it
I continue this road
lessons learned
become challenges ahead.
Driven by a desire
to see a better way
I’ll modify and strategize
until I see the light.
Losing believers along my route,
I continue undeterred.
Focused on the end
I’ll make my way somehow.
Failures provide opportunities
new avenues and ideas.
I see so closely
where I want to be
dreams and hopes
faithfully guide me
through the darkness.
