How many sleepless nights must I endure before I find my big break?
How many dark circles must I wear before I start counting my gains?
How many bouts of flu do I need to face before the cash flows in?
How many days should I anticipate?
I push myself a little harder each day, hoping tomorrow will bring ease.
I go to great lengths for my past,
wishing for a stress-free today.
I hold back my tears,
Bearing the pain,
Just to see clearly where the finish line lies.
I need to know how many days are left
so I can give myself a break and be kinder to myself.
