Journey...R.A. Nappi
Well it seems as if this mountain has no peak
Jutting upward stabbing deep into the clouds
Long draining and treacherous is my journey
But onward I struggle with every fiber of my being
The shadow sets from the mountain just crossed
with free hand have I taken this challenge
The mountain seems alive teasing me with false paths
Leading nowhere except frustration and despair
The wind at times sounds like laughter mocking me
Giving up quitting would be easy but I will not
I will continue and fight there is to much at stake
Trust placed in me by others to find my way is great
A gentle nudge and lifetime of disappointment to overcome

A lifetime of struggles...
I was so negative because of a piss poor home life when I broke free I try to stay on a positive path so I look at things, not as disappointments and change that to learning experiences. I get where you are coming from though. Telles a story.
