Victory Scares Me

Admiring joyous movements of
young performers which I can
never imitate

Joyful victory scares me, self-help
books claim we only attain what
we can visualize

Success eludes us if we long for
fun, but ambition seems empty
I cannot envision

A goal reached, I long for
adventures, preferring
spiritual wisdom

I enjoy writing down my
thoughts, words singing
a rhythmic melody

Lack of ambition is not a moral
failing, though society doesn't
allow it so

I only see colleagues and family
obligations superseding
a universe of dreams
