Linger

It says that according to Hinduism, you need four things in life in order to be successful at whatever that you decide to do, Imagination, Intellect, Fortitude and the last, but hardest is Failure

Before the stink of failure becomes insidious

Down my spine of logical thoughts and real life

As I breathe towards a success so precious

My visions are becoming to rich with clarity

With the permanent memories of losses not abandoned

And over this darkness, my sole dream still linger

Author's Note

I made it as short as possible. Hope things are clear. I hope that this gives you some comfort in pursuing one's down dream
