Believer


I am belief 

I believe in myself

But does belief make me the best?

Does it allow me to pass the test? 

Surely it is not that easy.

Along with belief must come the work

Hours of consistant action

Maybe then you'll come out on top

But the uncertainty should not make you stop

To try and fail is better than to not try at all

After all at least you tried

If you try and fail, try, try, and try again

Having persistance in what you believe is how you can achieve

When you continue to work, success won't be such a far feat

And when you find yourself successful

realizing you've accomplished more than you've implied

You'll know it was all worth it, every hour, every second, every minute of your life

And certainly you'll be able to say

I am Belief
