"The Sky is the Limit".


The sky is the limit that I can’t exceed

But nothing will stop me from chasing my dreams.

I’ll spread my wings; and like a dove I’ll sore.

I’ll fly higher and higher than ever before.

When things go wrong as they often will,

And the path that I’m walking seems to be all uphill;

I’ll break for a moment and find a nice place to sit,

But I will soon get up and continue; for I refuse to quit.

Towards the end of the journey

It seems that the biggest obstacle that had ever arose,

Was incomprehensibly, self imposed.

The true barrier- I can finally see,

The limit is not the sky

The limit is me.
