The Idea of Success


So close, yet so far

The idea of something, something taking over my mind

It has a familiar look and sound

It grasps like a bind

 

This thought: vivid and colorful

Vibrant like a dream

It fuels my whole existence

It creates my one woman team

 

I chase and chase every day

And sometimes it feels unfair

So close, yet so far

No other idea compares
