In Search...

What is Victory?

Higher and higher
Even more than the birds flying
Even faster than the time
Highest of the peaks
Want to climb
Countless stars
Want to catch
Drowning is a disgrace
Can't lose a single match
Some endless wishes to satisfy
People laugh
People cry
Want to sparkle like a moon
Want to see all dreams
Today just now
No later, no soon
Victories to win
And songs of happiness
Every time to sing
People loving
People hating
Clouds above
Again for stars to shine
My eyes are waiting
When scars felt by heart
And emotions glittering
Even in despairs, in dark
But now when lights all on
Then hopes all dim
Even the wounds anymore
Aren't felt by skin
What is Victory?
What is to rise?
Even the liars, deceivers
They all can win
The loyal, sincere
In this race can lose all
Even the cruels
Can become the king
With bright names
Without effort their lights blink
And the poor souls
Their hardships none can think
So what is Victory?
What is to rise?
Best is not what is at top
What is big or grand
Rain is not rain
Without it's any drop
Wishing and choosing
Stealing and buying
Good and Great
Life is not a market
Not a shop
Where you'll be happy
In search of that spot
In search of that place
Yes you can Choose to love
Choose to hate
Choose to run
Choose to wait
But victory isn't always great
Even forgetting yourself...
Truths beyond clouds above
Beyond the money, the wealth
Finding that true love...
Not in the huge peaks
It's there in the hearts so deep...
In moments of selflessness...
Drowning in the shallowness...
There is best of the peace
Not in the cheers of crowd
Even not in the shining streets...
