Love Poem: Stubborn

Stubborn

I'm locked in
True to the end

Tunnel vision on Fleek
To my foes, idleness, I bequeath

An oak tree standing
not moving, glorious goals I'm demanding

The sun in my soul burns
Sweet dreams my heart yearns

Aspiring to beautiful heights 
Not meditating on memes, ready to take flight

Practicing social distancing, not because of COVID
Frying fish and making doughnuts 'cause indolence is outmoded

I'm stubborn about my dreams because they're mine
We all have 24, I ain't playing with 'Father Time'

I'm unwavering in my goals
Failure to plan will certainly invite woes

I'm unyielding about my life
to live frivolously is like dancing with strife

I'm just a stubborn creature
And my industriousness is my best feature
