I did it for me,

I did it as an excuse,

I worked on it tirelessly,

And nearly died from it.

It is a wonder though,

That motivation is not the key,

I see who I can be,

I want who I can become,

So I have to overlook all these troubles,

To move towards that goal,

It is untainted,

Unblemished and utterly breathtaking,

So I plod through the mud,

Because I see me then,

And I cannot wait to meet her.
