Triumph

The constant need to triumph,

The desire that is all-encompassing and all that

we so immensely aspire

For some reason, it’s the one thing that we just can’t let go of

Or for that matter, voluntarily shake off of our own volition.

Its importance is one so significant that it’s placed at the very forefront of our mind,

And still, it stands there, ever so firm and unwavering,

It resolves fierce and inflexible

Exhibiting an indomitable tenacity

A resolution that no matter the risks will

not

halt

As it grasps opportunity after opportunity

And hastily proceeds without an ounce of caution

it makes it’s way up the long and winding road

For all need transverse upon this path

The one voyage, we cannot steer from

Nor for that matter have the luxury of experiencing again

So, know when the time comes to let it be,

May people with the same purpose blend

This piece is something that I was able to bring forth from a stream of thoughts and ideas that sort of converged into one. This is the first piece I have posted on TeenInk, and consequently, I hope it is able to give the readers a sense of relatability.
