The Truth of My Youth

My life is a circle

There is never a new road

I always run back to the same hurdle

And my heart will reload

I feel love and hate

Seldom an in between

When life begins to waver 

My passion cannot be seen

There are spouts of fire

Sparked by motivation to win

But after a while I seem to tire

And I can feel that drive seep through my skin

Despite my struggles

I push through the pain

One foot in front of the other

And I begin to feel whole again

I know I will always return

To the passion of my youth

Even when my mind starts to churn

I can fall back into my truth
