Getting There Poem by Nicholas Hrynchuk

Slowly but surely,
I'm getting stronger,
Not just physically but also mentally,
And hopefully nothing will change that

I'm getting to where I wanna be,
Not at the back, hidden from sight,
But kind of standing out in the light,
Where some people can actually see me

I'm slowly working on a book,
It's not from my past,
It came from my head,
And I'm hoping this time my work will last

I'm getting there,
Not for anybody but me,
No one's going to get in my way,
If they try, they better be ready to move
