Still I Do

I fail more than I succeed

Still I get up

I hurt more than I let on

Still I move on

I regret so many mistakes

Still I keep trying

I’ve had dreams shattered by life

Still I keep dreaming

I cry in private more than I care to admit

Still face the world with a smile

I’m afraid of never reaching my goal

Still keep working towards those goals

I want to sleep so bad

Still I keep getting up at 5 AM

I have doubts every step of the way

Still I’m confident I will succeed

I don’t know where I will end up

Still I keep living

This might now make sense now

But looking back many years it will be clear to me

Segundo Juan Devora
