Last
A poem to go by..
Sep 10, 2021
I was not last because I wanted to.
I was last because I gave up.
I was not last because I didn’t take the last step.
I was last because I didn’t even try.
I was not last because I was happy.
I was last because I was not calm.
I was not last because I walked on a bed of thorns.
I was last because I walked on the bed of roses.
I was not last because I didn’t have a vision to see the clear path.
I was last because I didn’t walk up to the point where the roads became clear while I walked.
I was not lost because I put efforts.
I was last because I didn’t put in efforts.
I was not last because I wanted to.
I was last because I gave up.
— From the Writer.
