Back at it

by Ryan NKP , July 21, 2026

It arrived in pain, It never asked me for permission
Every scar became a sentence, every failure a page,
I stopped chasing applause and chased purpose instead.
The person I wanted to become was waiting behind the one I had to outgrow
Mountains don't move for dreamers no more, they bow to those who keep climbing more.
I no longer fear becoming someone new but fear staying the same
