Drive


Drive, ambition, my motivation, my goal my purpose in life, my sole reason for surviving this internal struggle This down and out state and multiple thoughts I juggle What keeps me going is what keeps me breathing everyday is a supposed clean slate and every minute of every hour,I'm dreaming of what could be what should be, what will be These visions are huge and my potential even overwhelms me and then the fear comes in and hesitation plays a visit or two or three and then I'm left to be -- and feel what needs to be done So I'm quick to attempt to tackle everything at once only to meet frustration, pressure, self-loathing at the tiniest failure needing reassurance and encouragement from somewhere, anywhere to get me there to that place of That drive, ambition, my motivation, my goal, my purpose in life, my soul.
