Greatness
Greatness
The time has come, the time has come for me
I’m no longer little,my journey is just beginning
My parents are my guide, they can’t do everything for me
A look through my father’s eyes shows what life is going to be bringing
Demands were being made, the everyday tasks were becoming harder
My anxiety grew to fear, I was too scared to bother.
I stopped being me as things were going in a different direction
As I was facing adversity, I started looking for something to blame
The world is filled with sun, at times it’s covered by clouds
Life is about moving forward and getting back up when you are knocked down
As a child you learn, your parents taught you what’s best
After they did their part is up to me to do the rest
I face my challenges and I do it with a smile
When darkness comes, it’s only there for a while
My father and mother did everything they could, finally they could be at rest
I learn how to conquer adversity, trouble times, and tragedies in order to reach greatness.
