Lost for Success

To be lost in the void of success,

The thought of which one seeks

His purpose in life; his way;

His life.

Does the soul bear to

live without the consent

Of its hidden power, never

Unleashed?

Hatred, Envy, and Anger

Bully the innocent soul that

Comes in this world with purity

Of the heart, only to find no

Beauty in its purpose.

Is it a battle for these

Three elements to conquer,

Or to be conquered? That,

You must ask yourself.

Is the reality what you should

Avoid, leave it and sleep with the

Allusions of failure, or will you face

The offered hardships for the return

Of Victory?

With thought, Failure is your friend.

He breaths yet you disgust him;

He looks yet you avoid him;

He speaks yet you shun him;

If your mind is turned for conscience,

With the milk of kindness to be filled,

On the heart’s black spots to be poured,

Then only can you play with failure.

Bring the welcoming warmness,

With a smile of challenge yet

Friendliness to him. For he

Will guide you from your lost

Way, to your lightened way,

All the way to success.
