A Grand Funeral
“You don’t know a single person on Earth that’s successful who didn’t put in the work” — Gary Vaynerchuk
I have an image,
Of how I want to die.
It’s a grand funeral with so many,
All sobbing, but for me.
I realized I need to work,
For a funeral that grand,
Needs a life that’s grander,
And I must not stop, I thought.
I kept on moving,
From a task to task,
From a job to another,
For this goal to others.
And when life isn’t getting that grander,
Or not even a bit close.
I stopped to think why,
I stopped to move at all.
Here’s a sad truth of mine,
That I don’t want you to live too.
Round and round in circles, I go,
I am moving, just not forward though.
Movement differs from Progress pals,
It’s not always taking you ahead.
Only focus on taking tiny steps,
Tiny, but determined steps ahead.
