Each Journey Does Begin

Now all will hit the wall
Both strong and weak of men
Who've heard the urgent call
To win before the end.

Conviction fails to cope
Yet few will leak a tear;
But when men lose their hope
A trembling sounds their fear.

So journey's incomplete
Are part of triumph's test
For joy is forged with feet
Whose motion takes no rest.
