Analysis of success



Today I start a quest
A mission to test
My inability,
Searching deep
For a feeling so weak
A feeling so strong you can barely speak,
Challenge by the best
No matter the out come
Dignity and courage
Prove you're number one,
Though it's hard, it's worth a quest
Defeat and failure is another sign of success.
