You know what is difficult?
When you try so hard and push so much,
And yet it’s never good enough.
When you injure yourself,
And still refuse to stop.
Obsessed with your passion and goals,
You begin to destroy yourself.
It’s difficult when you are constantly told to stop and scary at times,
But the damage is already done and now there is no turning back.
Eventually this obsession may lead to your death,
And then you realize that regardless of the consequences you won’t stop.
Maybe you will come back better than before,
But for now you know you have to call it quits... for now.
