Go For It

At this point, it seems like there is nothing left for you to lose,

And you are reminded of everyone of your failures due to every cut, scar, and bruise.

Just like so many other times in your past,

You knew that the pain and suffering would not last.

That you have it in you to overcome anything,

And you no longer look at the suffering, but rather all of the lessons that it brings.

You know more than anyone else that everything happens for a reason,

And it will eventually pass, just like the changing of the season.

You have made it through before, and you will time and time again,

Because if things are not okay yet, then you know that it is not the end.

And just like before, you decide to go for it one more time,

And even though you have not hit your goal yet, there are so many other things that you were 

able to find. 

You realized that you are capable of so much more,

And you finally realized what it was that you have been fighting for.

That this whole time you were doing it for them and to prove them all wrong,

But that is why you were struggling, because you were looking at it wrong all along.

The icing on the cake should have been rubbing it in everyone’s face,

But it should not have been the only reason that you were running this race.

You finally realized that the only person you need to survive is you,

And just like every other time before, you are able to make it through.

You finally realize that you have it in you to be alright,

And for the first time in a while you can see the end in sight.

It is the end when you finally come out victorious,

And after everything that you have been through, that ending is going to be glorious.

You finally get the chance to prove everyone wrong,

But you finally get to prove yourself right, which is what you knew you had in you all along.
