I WILL GO ON...

To those who falter...but know they are made for bigger things!

Yes.
i will go on...
When the whole world shuns me-
and the whole world shouts-
when I know, from the inside,
that "yes"...I am right,
no matter what comes,
I will go on!

Oh!
Let them bawl,
those merciless hounds,
let them cry, let them shout,
but if in me...
I find the truth,
all shouts I will melt,
to earn what I sought!

Dark tunnels,
stormy rains,
day, night...all insane-
me and only me;
and my truth,
unmasked-
ghosts, spirits and witches of black,
beware! Beware!
For I will go on!

Author's Note

Have you read Ayn Rand's "The Fountainhead"? This poem symbolized Howard Roark and tells me what I should be. Self-belief is the best belief!

AYN RAND IS MY IDOL. I have not finished The Foutainhead, but I loved Anthem. I'm a super libretarian and any fan of Ayn's is a friend of mine. Anyway, great poem. It seems like something Ayn might appreciate, the image of someone with the drive to go on despite everyone else. Nice job.
