Life's Ups and Downs

May 16, 2013
By Anonymous

The thrill of life
The goose bumps on your arm
The heart beating out of its chest
The nerve-wracking agony
The determination and courage
All of which lead up to one thing
Victory
The lazy attitudes of people
The lack of passion in your heart
The failure to prepare
The fear taking over
The lack of self-confidence
The discouragement of others
All of which lead up to one thing
Failure


The author's comments:
My own experiences through sports inspired me to right this poem because I know what it takes to succeed and I also know that if you do not prepare you will fail.
