youre a competitive bastard
and thats great
but
you often drown your passion for that something
in these struggles to become better best
and you end up grasping for the pleasure
you once found in the act
and thats bad
because
it stops you from being happy in it
now and in the future which straight-up sucks
although i guess
that drive is the same drive that pushes
the great to become and stay great.
still
you tend to look only forward and never back
and the road ahead is endless now and ever.
the pursuit of greatness
can consume and
replace you.
you dont change when you become a great
so dont expect it dont look for it.
(the only thing youll ever be is you.)
