Perseverance
Never despair – the ocean’s deep
Although some mountains may be steep
The journey won’t be easy, friend
But persevere – you’ll reach the end
Each day another piece to find
The jigsaw’s neither cruel nor kind
It’s simply there for you to do
And wondering if you’ll see it through
The destiny planned for you is clear
And outside eyes can see you’re near
So why would quitting tempt you so
When there’s not very far to go?
What wills your doom? What wants your blood?
Stay far away, for others would
And press on to the blissful vision
There’s no more time for indecision
So when the goals seem far away
And endless dragons you need to slay
Hold this in mind, you’ll make it right
Keep persevering through the night
