Fruits of Labor

I have to aim high
To reach you is my goal
You are
Will be
My sweet success

There are others not unlike you
But still
You’re an achievement I can’t let pass
There are a lot of them in here
Whose watching
Waiting for me to fail
But I’m giving them no quarter
I can’t be outdone
I’m here to take you
And to impress them

I know I could ask for help
But I don’t want to share
You are mine and mine alone
I don’t mind any danger
For you
I will go all out
I expect nothing less
I’ll climb steadfastly
Endure any strain
My eyes set only at you
At my prize
Until…

Yes! Your in my grasp at last!
Having you in my hands
I see envy in their eyes
What sweet victory this is

Grinning…

I take my first bite…
