My Pep Talk

​I bring myself back to work.
I want to stop.  But I keep going.
I want to lessen the load, but I persevere.
Steadiness and consistency are what I am after.
And all of that sounds so trite,
Like a motivational speech.
But finally, I belive I am ready to hear.
I could not find a reason to try
When it was all for money.
But now it fits.
