This is one of my favorites....enjoy!!

Ever since I was a youngster,
I wanted to be sucessful,
live a life of happiness,
and a life that's unstressful.
I know that in order to get the best in me,
I have to dig down deep,
to ignite the fires,
that burns my yearning desires.
I know that I can't do it all by myself
so, I ask God for his help.
With his guidance,
I shall find the courage and strength,
to suceed at life greatest lengths.
Soon, God's help will cease
because ultimately, it's up to me,
to get the best out of me.
I've always believed,
that it's been my destiny,
to get the best in me
because, I've always wanted to be number one
but, it ain't easy, when there's a million
other gifted poets under the sun.
I want to be the best ever
but, I know that I have to,
get my mind and heart together
because, in order for me to achieve,
I have to dig down deep,
in order to get the best out of me.
My poems are a complete work of art,
and I give a 100% effort with all my heart
as my concepts, are well-thoughtout and executed
and my creativity and visualization,
can never be disputed
but, in order for me,
to be the best,
I have to reach down deep,
inside my treasure chest,
in order to achieve,
what I've always wanted to be,
and that's the truly best in me.
