We Push We Fight

We push.
We fight.
Day in and day out.

Trying to be better than
we were the day before.

Trying anything
not to remain stagnant.

Pulling ourselves up
whenever we fall.

Staying down is an
acceptance of defeat
and admittance of failure.

Even though we know
we’re getting stronger,
we feel more fatigued
each time we get up.
Keep pushing.

At the peak of exhaustion
is when you’ll realize that
a tranquil paradise
is on the horizon.
