Each step is a battle hard fought and won,
My weary feet trudge on though tired and done.
Doubts creep in with every mistake made,
Threatening to plunge me in darkness of shade.

But deep in my heart a fire still burns,
The flame of my passion fiercely yearns
To reach the summit I've set in my sight,
No matter the pain, struggle or plight.

When failures loom large and success seems so far,
I dig deep for strength, a guiding bright star.
Through tears and through turmoil I will not cave,
This dream that I have I am bound to save.

The road tests my limits at every turn,
Inside me a fierce determination burns.
I'll battle on despite every knock down,
Stay focused on where I want to be crowned.

So though exhaustion and barriers abound,
In my soul an indomitable sound
Echoes the call that I cannot deny -
To chase what I want till the end I'll try!
