Humble Steps
Oh what a humbling feeling it is
to watch all your hard work fall into the wrong hands,
oh, the wretched feeling!
The audacity she had to steal my deserved position,
what I had worked so hard for all year, lost within a minute's vote
Anger seems to be the only living thing inside me
But there is no going back from here, I must hold my head high.
Team captain one day, the next, just a swimmer.
The thought hangs over me, I could not hate my life more in this moment.
But things get better with time,
Stepping back cannot hurt, I have better things to focus on
move on, move on
My race here is finished, but a much greater one promises so much more for me,
I will take my humble steps towards a greater life.
