Until I decide

I’m from a city where timing means everything.
You can miss your chance at greatness by mere seconds,
If you aren’t prepared for it.
The most endearing part about this place is how often you’ll be told you cannot do something,
That your dreams are too unrealistic – too far fetched

Until I can no longer ignore the adrenaline growing under my skin
Until the obsession with doing the impossible became of a bearing
Until every fall started to feel less like a wound
and more like an embrace..

Where do you get scored

But be careful where and how you look for validation. Achieving something impressive(to strangers) may require 10x effort to earn similar recognition from friends and family, There's a level of familiarity your friends and family have, a "see-finish" It clouds their...
