Don't tell me.

"You can't do that"

If said as a warning: that I'm crossing some line,
that I'm partaking in the creation of pain,
that there are things which should be sacred,
that the world might end.

Then I understand and will take that into account before engaging in my action.

If said as a measure of my ability: that I lack the capacity,
that I wouldn't have the heart to see it through,
that the passion doesn't simmer in my veins,
that my efforts will inevitably fade into oblivion.

Then understand that I will proceed with even more vigor and dedication, for I will not rest until the task is completed. Until success is realized.

And it will be.

Just like the last time and the time before.
