A goal of which many allow success For me even as it is written it’s hard to say Expanding the tree fulfilled it Another certificate placed on the shelf Although this time hung with shame A name once spoke with honors Presently brought doubt From this moment forward she would make it her mission to never disappoint another person Again her foot would slip Her grip would quickly tighten preventing the fall Their totem she would climb Terrors of their thoughts kept her moving Another life brought into the world Now there were sisters And again she would climb Being whatever she needed to make the world happy Overtime while focusing on everyone else she’d lose herself Soon she’d start to replace one heartache for another That was just how hard she loved It blinds until it breaks her Then she’s left to carry the pieces As she looks up at the endless journey she prays one day she will live in happiness The totem she climbs to be there for everyone else will bring her love This is her mantra as she pushes through her hidden pain

A goal of which many allow success For me even as it is written it’s hard to say Expanding the tree fulfilled it Another certificate placed on the shelf Although this time hung with shame A name once spoke with honors Presently brought doubt From this moment forward she would make it her mission to never disappoint another person Again her foot would slip Her grip would quickly tighten preventing the fall Their totem she would climb Terrors of their thoughts kept her moving Another life brought into the world Now there were sisters And again she would climb Being whatever she needed to make the world happy Overtime while focusing on everyone else she’d lose herself Soon she’d start to replace one heartache for another That was just how hard she loved It blinds until it breaks her Then she’s left to carry the pieces As she looks up at the endless journey she prays one day she will live in happiness The totem she climbs to be there for everyone else will bring her love This is her mantra as she pushes through her hidden pain
