That One Time

What is that one job that will change my life?

How can I know?

But I know that the job that will change my life will

give me a chance to show my skills,

allow me to express my thoughts with no fear,

show me my dreams and passions,

present to me mentors and peers,

give me the chance to be who I am.

That one job that will change my life

won't be handed to me on a silver platter.

So that one time 

when I have to work a bit harder,

stay up bit later,

drink a bit more coffee,

I'll fight back the pain and frustration.

Because that one time when I need

to perservere and suck it up

may be the opportunity 

to get that one job that will change my life.
