...And you Tell Yourself you Can't Make it
because no one before you did
By T. LichtPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

And you tell yourself you can't make it
because no one before you did
no one in your circle ever made it into a square
because everyone in it says it can't be done
you tell yourself you can't be successful
because the mother you came out of isn't
and the father who tried to raise you
didn't even know how to spell it
and to achieve it...
he told you to dream
so....
instead of telling myself I can't make it
all night and day, I dream
of making it, making it to the stop
to prove the circle world wrong
