Success Is Counted Sweetest

Success is counted sweetest by those Who never tasted victory's rose For they know the struggle and the pain The uphill battle they fought in vain.. They strive and strive with all their might But somehow always miss the sight Of the finish line, of the prize Leaving them with tears in their eyes, Yet still they try, again and again Hoping that someday they'll attain The glory that the winners boast And the satisfaction they cherish most But in their hearts they know the truth That success is sweeter to those who lose For they understand the cost it takes To achieve what everyone else makes So let them hold on to their dreams And cherish the struggle, so it seems For in the end, they'll realize That it's the journey that makes it all worthwhile..
