I love the sprawl of a line
"But those days don't outweigh the days where I feel like i'm nothing to become"
That then leads into a quatrain that is thrown at you in short bursts
"I've competed and failed
Every move confuses me like a cold trail
Yet I don't cry and I don't wail
I refuse to be perceived as frail"
Also, "grind and grit" is quite the fun phrase. Good job!
