Spirit

My story isn't over,
It has only just begun,
Time has yet to pass me by,
My work is still not done.

My goals remain unachieved,
Aspirations unfinished,
A fire is now burning,
Energy not diminished.

Complete the final blueprint,
And lay down the building bricks,
A future plans itself out,
But the clock slowly ticks.

Dreams of better days run free,
Days where I can rest at ease,
Of days which give me room to breathe,
And days in which time will freeze.

One day I will rest in peace,
Looking back on time well spent,
Hoping that there's no regrets,
And that I'm happy and content.

So until then, I will fight,
I will push and I will try,
To be the best that I can be,
For my spirit will never die.
