Where I am is at odds with where I want to be
Between here and there lie the expectations of me
Foreseen, renowned, favored and profound...
is the future of those not afraid to leave the ground
Logical, configured, typical and hindered...
is the present me, and because of fear, I surrendered

Dreams fade due to the lack of means
Hope weakens and tears like tattered seams
The road looks so arduous and scathing...
that Life itself becomes worth debating

Where I am is at odds with where I need to be
Stuck at letter D when the destination is Z
Hopeful, positive, prayerful and resilient...
is my state of mind to assure my future is brilliant
God will make a way for life to begin...
is my creed to close the gap of where I am and where I end
