Sweet taste of victory

I dream a dream of a better life

I will make it come true

I do not have to believe in myself

I just simply have to prove

all my fears and doubts untrue

 

the sweet taste of victory

 I long for

 

the sweet taste

 will purge my mouth

from the taste of sweat and tears

I will have on my tongue for years

 

a journey on this path to dreams

is not an easy road

it is        my passion

it is       my dream

and it’s worth every burden load

This is a beautiful piece, and I found I could connect to it much more potently because of how eerily similar it is to the mind and situation of a main character I am currently writing.
A beautifully described struggle, and the wonderful feeling of a struggles worth. =]

And you will make it sister... I have that faith in you.
You're not well now, but you will be.
I'm always supporting you, and know what you've been through.
Your words are honest, and beautiful. As always you give me the
Goosebumps of truth. And I love that. So so so well done dear.
