Limits I Knew Immediately I Had To Rid Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Your expectations,
And my journey to discover...
My dreams and wishes,
Only I can identify...
As I pry away obstacles everyday,
To remove them without delay...
As I face them to ensure they don't stay,
May be more 'your' dilemma than mine.
You see...
If I had complied and agreed to your assessment,
To follow a life as you have perceived I needed...
I would not have collected valuable experiences,
Resulting in falling down to get up from scraped knees.
Or a wisdom to obtain by facing 'my' insecurities.
Although I must say this...
I thank you for introducing me to limits,
I knew immediately I had to rid.
