How Many Steps in “Making It”

Foggy wall of thoughts

sit carefree within me.

On the endless hill I wonder,

How many more steps,

Does it take for one to consider “Making it”.

How many steps, must I walk.

In fear of tripping on my own mistakes,

Crushing down back to my beginning.

All from my own mind,

Getting in the way.

The sky seems so ordinary,

I wish I could lie to myself,

But my mind gets in the way of any lies I try to tell it.
