Success

In a corner of your mind your doubts may find you

Where nothing else will dare to roam

Where secret dreams hide there alone

Saying, thinking, if and can

The little child inside the man

Clinging tight to all you know

But you are special, don’t let go

Success it called, but called in vain

You turned away, then looked again

Could not resist the light you saw

It sought your aims, then drew you more

And as you sail you feel it hound you

Glad, but not so glad it found you

Taking bows, just kiss its lips

Taste success, the sweetest sips

Be sure the seeds you sew are planted

But never take too much for granted

Don’t worry if it will fade like day

Or stay with you along the way

Then in that corner of your mind

Should those doubts find you

You’ll ride the ups, ride out the downs

And not look behind you.
