Bottom Rung

Does this ever get any easier?

Will I someday reach a day

Where it doesn’t feel as though

Every road block has been dropped in the way?

Does it ever get simpler?

Will I eventually reach a place

Where I feel confident enough

To keep my own pace?

Does it ever get better?

Will I every feel like all these challenges

Have been overcome-

That I’m no longer stuck

On that bottom rung?

Does this ever get any easier?

Will I someday reach a day

Where it doesn’t feel as though

Every road block has been dropped in the way?
