Victory

Tossed to the side

Left with time to bide

Abandoned on the bench

Left with a thirst to quench

 

Each Failure glaring down upon me

My Limitations chain me, I can’t be set free

This Weakness blinds me, I cannot see

Left hopelessly under the shadow of my enemies

 

Every Flame I’ve ever sparked, reduced back to ashes

Any Dream I’d ever dreamt, burns and crashes

All Hope I’d ever carried, now only a memory that flashes

The entirety of Time stands still, while I’m praying this moment passes

 

Frustration rising over my lid

Regrets that can no longer be hid

Misery flowing over what I never did

Fear growing and sharply acrid

But

I will scream louder than my heart could ever wail

I will strive harder and push past every time I’ve failed

I will rise higher from these sinking depths and tell my tale

I will succeed in every challenge, through any trial I will prevail
