The Struggle of Ambition

Location

Whimsically wishing for a life of happiness,

yet constantly constrained by a monetary monster.

 

Reasoning roads to take or to avoid,

forever weighing the pros and cons.

 

Seeing the limitless life that lies ahead,

however always conscious of the wallet in your pocket.

 

One can be anything- change the world if they please,

but these possibilities aren't as feasible as they seem.

 

I want to achieve much in a lifetime

I ask myself, is this worth the price.

 

School and start up fees, they all cost money

and they all cost time, time is money they say.

 

For now I will dream of a time-

a time when my dreams won't be limited by my lack of dimes.
