Only Words?

What is talent,
Something given?
What is hard work,
With no achievement?

I wonder,
If I have anything to give,
Why does it seem I need,
A long time to perfect a "gift".

Am I only words?
Am I only words?
Maybe it is true,
But outside sometimes otherwise prove.

Sometimes I can,
Sometimes I can't,
I don't want to be defined,
By what was once done.

Because I am one of those,
Who do not begin so well,
After practicing for the tenth dose,
Only may I excel.

To make things speedy,
Give me a teacher,
Don't deny me credibility,
If you deny me these features:
Knowledge, wisdom and experience,
For I am a good student.

That is me, of imperfection,
Of observation,
Learning and improvement.

But never the best to begin with,
Which others seem to be,
Why can't I be?

With no achievement,
What is hard work?
Something given,
What is talent?

Am I only words?
Am I only words?
