There were qualities and possessions I had admired
There was much that my impressionable mind had desired
Everything I lusted after eluded me
As I chased my desires passionately
Since those goals never seemed to be in sight
Gradually I started giving up the fight..
I kept my head down and did what I needed to
But never thought I would achieve a breakthrough
**
Thus detached from my desires, focused on results I was not
Going through the process surprising outcomes brought
What I had thirsted for, admired, desired
I seemed to have achieved- I had not required
Burning ambition or obsession, instead
Separating the journey and destination seemed to work best
At least for me- while I enjoyed the journey
I was subconsciously preparing for ultimate victory…
**
The desire to succeed makes you afraid to the core
Thus detachment from the outcome has some allure
When I want something, I try my best
To let go, trusting a higher power to figure out the rest..
Passion...unbridled
