Falter.

Trying to be a trailblazer
with an introverted character,

Can feel like setting fire
to a large body of water.

You have hunger for success
and things that aren’t mediocre,

But you hate being the centre
of unwarranted attention,
or being put on a pedestal.

Your heart fights battles-
your own mini-theatre,

You want your name to live forever,
But the consequences
Make you falter.
