When will I catch a win?

NinjaGirl

I'm chasing it really hard,

I even think I have good running shoes on.

I keep trying, with new strategies and everything,

But I just can't seem to catch a win.

Every time I miss I feel my feet hurt,

And my tears threaten to fall.

But I keep trying,

Because if I don't, he'll outrun me for sure!

            The poem revolves around the struggle to achieve success or "catch a win." It emphasizes perseverance in the face of challenges and setbacks, highlighting the emotional toll that this pursuit can take on an individual.

              Mostly--I don't know if I "highlight the emotional toll" very well!

                I'd say it's a "what" question! Thanks!

                  Tryin to be enigmatic? Last time I looked there was a 'he' in there - personifying wot?

                  • NinjaGirl

                    I've been personifying a lot of things lately; sorry for the confusion! Almost everything I own is now a "he." So the win I'm trying to catch, is indeed now a "he" too.

                    • Doggerel Dave

                      So long as YOU know what you are doing☺️ Have a good life....

                      • NinjaGirl

                        Me and all my "he"s will!
