So close yet,
So far,
To your final destination:
Your goal.
And once you get there,
There will be no sad days.
And once you get there,
You will never feel lonely.
The road of this journey is
Long and narrow.
Jump in too deep,
Find yourself plummeting
Over the edge.
Take too long,
Find yourself getting passed
By those more efficient.
A dangerous adventure,
With taunting tricks
That toy with your feelings.
Mistaken judgment.
An emotional journey
Embarked only by
Brave souls.
So many times
You encounter setbacks.
So many times
You feel
So close, yet
So far.
