Analysis of A Strong Desire



Ambition is the driving force
That pulls one along.
It's the voice that makes up
One's conscience,
That calls out to him,
Because of a strong desire
For something he wants badly
In this world.
Dreams are visions
But they are not illusions
If one has the will it takes
To make them a reality.
