Determined

Silence will not prevail

Failure will not set sail

No sir this young man

Will do all he possibly can

To prove that he will achieve

All the dreams you did deceive

Your rejection will not stop

This lad from reaching the top

You can try but you won’t succeed

He has all he will ever really need

A bunch of dreams that you ignored

He deeply loved and has stored

Into his heart until the very end

These dreams he does closely defend

When he said yes you said a simple no

Is that him silently screaming I told you so?

Precistance..

Go past what others believe in your dreams.. Very true.. Have had to go past or even against many times..
