::: Not To Be Denied :::

The road looked deserted with fear
It seemed as if all hope was gone,
I glanced at a bystander sitting near
My conscious said, "Keep moving on"
There were many headed in that direction
But sight of the path led them astray
A few grabbed at me, to draw away my attention
Pressing on - for me there could be no delay
"When will I reach my destination," I asked
"And why are so many giving up?"
I felt weak, and not wanting to finish the task
Then I thought, 'To achieve one doesn't depend on luck'
There were some I knew from years ago
Now is not the time to lose the desire
I must go forth - this I know
As their stares were like darts of fire
How could they not continue to seek
And wish that I too would fall
For inside, I've reached my highest peek
Now at the top, I now stand tall
