Persist

Persist,
To exist
Or rather to transcend existence,
Or else, the myth of it
All to exist on the highest plane
No stones unturned, on this highest plane
No french cuts, on this highest plane
Beat yourself unconscious, dispose of the politeness to thyself, on this highest plane

Persist, to not give an inch
To grind, to play the spoilsport to your own pleasures
To crown only elation, on this highest plane

Persist, to beat the hollowness inside
To kill the emotions that masquerade as elation
To be honest to thyself
To war against complacency

Persist, to evolve
To leave the river of your birth
To reach the ocean of your end

To arrive, persist.
