Believe


I believed, that what I achieved was always within reach.

Stuck within dreams, believing in schemes

That promised me success

Meant always to impress

In a dress

With cinderella-esque

Aspirations

I was never fooled,

mislead to believe that my success was not what it seemed

I knew that it cost hard work

I knew every time I would land in the dirt

Expecting to get hurt, bruised, damaged

That it would all be worth it in the end

I knew I did not need fairy-tale scenarios

I just needed you

To make my dream come true

To show me that I could do this on my own

But that we're better as two

And anything we do

Is better together
