Failure

 In this mighty ocean laden with victors,

Bringing wrath upon the ones laid to rout,

Fallen not of their accord,

But the cruel fate of their destiny

Heavy is the heart crushed by defeat,

Drowned in the emptiness of hatred and taunts,

Lost in the pursuit of success,

Grinding away at the wheel in this world of post truth

Failure is but a step towards success,

A portion of ill begotten fate forced upon,

This wave of defeat shall be overcome,

I will emerge victorious.
