Accepting Losses

sacrificing self for better or worse is almost too much
the exact outcome's unknown and you do lose not win

you now know blindness but one day may see truth
rather than just what's true there then not here now

the stage is a play written so many time cycles ago
as histories clock and the actors obituary measure

sometimes one has to accept losses to move on; sometimes when you lose, you win.
