Dear struggler,
Steadfast, faithful believer,
I heard about your dream,
Your vision of what you aspired to be,
I heard about the distance you traversed,

You heard stories of a land filled with great opportunities,
Where birth or status did not decree,
So you left a life in pursuit of dawning a new reality,
