Pathway

fear of failure will nail you

long before you perform

your first miracle every one has a hour

some of us have just one minute to go

fear of death is not optional

when dying is inevitable

to obtain a dream

you may have to swim

in a latrine, that's a lot of

ish to go through and not

too clean but it's your dream

throwing diamonds in the sky

when they could be sitting right

underneath your feet, so move your seat

you may even find gold if you get up and sweep

think deep, deeper than any depth you have been

life can be a grave experience in many holes

I have been every time I've hit the bottom

I've dug myself out with a pen, I do not claim

to know everything there are three  I will defend

if you love what you do, your passion will save you

by the time your wings mend you will ascend

to those touched by fire, the journey never ends
