~ Persistence ~

I was the one who insisted
that she can do it
she must do it
and she will do it now

I was the one who forcefully
let her do it
coz I know she can
and she will do it now

soon, but not yet
everyone keep saying
soon, but not now
they keep arguing

and they keep defending her
they keep her away
from trying from believing
that she can do it

I was the one who said now
and now is the time
cos she is ready
as she always had

***

No, she did not make her first step
yet
No, she did not stand up for the first time
yet
but she tried
willingly she tried
straightened her legs
she pull herself up

***

however,
she kept me smiling all night long...
