Loyal


I'm not smart,

I'm not fast,

I'm not strong,

I'm Loyal.

 

I find in times of consternation,

The quickest fix is dedication.

Being Loyal,

That's what it takes.

 

To be the greatest,

The path is the straightest.

I want to be royal.

Raise all the stakes.

 

To enjoy the view,

Be faithful over few.

Commit to the spot.

Give all I've got.

 

For what I desire,

I'll fight through the mire,

It's the path I chose.

Know the thorns of the rose.
