marathon 2.16.20

life is a marathon

not a sprint

it's long and arduous

days can be easy

most of them

in my experience

are very hard

there are so many things

that i want to do

but it is impossible

to do them all

priorities get set

decisions get made

you have to say no

to stay focused

get things done

get better

it's a lonely life

but it feels rewarding

a small circle of friends

who know you care

and are there

to turn to for guidance

for a distraction

or for some wings

you gotta eat

no getting around that

just keep your head down

keep grinding

you will get there

it just takes time
