it's the beauty in trying

It’s the beauty in trying, the delight in hoping, and

oftentimes the unexpected dejection that partners with reality.

That one goal pushes further and further beyond your daydreams and

into the realm of tangibility.

It starts with an untarnished idea, never littered with faults,

only ever embodying triumphs.

The fire you lit within, only but a dull flame,

grows brighter with each hurdle jumped.

Each overly optimistic conversation building enthusiasm,

and blinding unsubstantiated skepticism.

It’s the serotonin swirling through your veins,

urging you deeper and deeper into a void of the unknown.

Where you swim comfortably in the dark lake of your subconscious,

contemplating the joy in possibilities.

It’s care and precision, timeless hours spent refining,

perfection only but one revision away, always.

The palpability seems to stray from your reach,

as imperfection overpowers elation.

The doubt that fuels inhibitions, accompanied by repudiation,

break down each layer of electric confidence.

It’s the strength in trying, the anticipation in hoping, and

the unexpected result that pairs rhythmically in reality.

Whilst unfavorable more times than not, it’s the novelty of surprise.

The untarnished idea once favored so heavily transcends without hesitation,

back into a daydream as an existence far greater blossoms to fruition.
