It was always a virtue

Moving forward

Pushing relentlessly

Into goals

Drive was praised

Motivation set to fire

Until the fire

Roared to inferno

Unstoppable was a virtue

Not a symptom

Not a window

To a lack of knowledge

An achievement

To be admired

Unstoppable was a virtue

That became a burden

And a brick wall

A disease

To run my days

Unstoppable no more. – Caroline A. Slee
