You can mock me, point fingers and laugh, and maybe my confidence will be shattered. Maybe, in the end, my hopes will become a memory and you will reign as the winner, the one who obliterated the next success story. Even so, just the fact that I had a plan means something.
It may not have been meticulously scrutinized, nor would it have a sturdy foundation.
In the end, what truly matters is that I tried. I put 110% of me, and at that moment, what you said meant nothing. Unlike you, I reached for what I longed for. I ran the extra mile, and I held in a year's worth of tears.
The truth is, I have been stupid and now that time has progressed, I have found myself retrogressing.
Woo, tainted.
