Cold victory.
I've given it my all, my best shot,
But still, success seems out of reach, a distant dot.
I've toiled and labored, day and night,
To make my dreams take flight.
But the harder I try, the further it seems,
Like a mirage that shimmers and gleams.
I've fallen short, and stumbled too,
And watched my hopes and dreams fall through.
It's hard to swallow, this bitter pill,
To know that I have failed, despite my skill.
To see my efforts come to naught,
And feel as though I've sold myself short.
But even in this moment of despair,
I know that life can sometimes be unfair.
That success is not always guaranteed,
And sometimes our efforts go unheeded.
