Finally Together
No Plagiarism!fNZxK5XhFghVy9FczlLWposted on PＥNAＮＡ

For every part 

that stayed 

through the fog

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFvaba3Ug6

The feeling of warmth

spread through my veins,

as pieces of a puzzle

finally clicked together.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjE0hPKqMGa

A door that 

was once invisible —

now visible.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL0WeQhGAx

And wide open,

in front of me,

was reality.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyV4yCJ6sL

Even though 

I didn’t know

where the path 

would lead —

all foggy and clear,

all humid —

I kept moving.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYkmFBqp98

I sweated

through summer.

I shivered 

through winter.

I sneezed 

through spring —

because of allergies.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdVkQnuYbl

The lovely 

three S’s.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aY02E2T50

But still,

I kept moving.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2ct4I20Jl

With no claps.

No likes.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeDUUwqtRf

I wasn’t sure

where the 

path was heading —

the wet soil, 

the sun rays…

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1THWMZxN1

But now —

I’m on a path.

One I laid

brick by brick,

right in front of me.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVBsZ7sNbW

I built it,

step by step.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzAHywpoci

And even though

I haven’t truly begun,

it’s all planned —

clearer than ever.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJzRHKlMp3

And with two beside me —

and myself —

me, myself, and I.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83t7H3wzbS

I got me.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Fkpq6uO7q

We’ll keep 

moving forward:

one step 

at a time,

one problem 

solved at a time,

one victory 

with every—

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0p9sIW8A6

No, 

no, 

no.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsihZqNnCaw

I may be 

imperfect.

But one 

challenge

is already 

a victory.

267Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhWzYVKSyK

This is me.

This is my path.

And this is my world.
