A blaze runs through her
Eyes of fire
Passion. That’s the word.
Passion.
I can feel the force of her
Pushing for more
Needing more
She’ll get it
I know she will
She will do anything to cross that finish line
To reach above the clouds
And grasp her dreams
Anything.
She needs this
And every single part of her will make sure she gets it
“Blood, sweat and tears”
That’s what they say
It’s much more than that
So much more
It’s her whole being
She will chase
And
She will achieve
How do I know?
Because she is me.
And all my energy goes into
The chase. The dream. The drive.
Every single drop.
They say it’s all luck
I say it’s all vigour
