Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

Lonely At the Top

Everyone challenges you at the top, 
All day everyday it never does stop, 

When people are bitter 
they want to do better, 
Taking shots at you 
It happens forever.

There is little peace,
they all want a piece, 
you can sense grief, 
as challenges increase, 

you can sense hatred, 
and bitterness reigns, 
they all demonstrate it,
in similar ways, 

everyone’s hungry to pull you back down, everyone wants to be wearing your crown, 

People are jealous and plot to get you, 
It all develops defeat is refused

they’re all motivated at the top of their game, 
and it’s all aimed at you time and again, 

it’s lonely up there but losers see greatness, 
they think it is where they’ll be celebrated, 
when in reality you really are hated, 
all on your own, you’re isolated 

When you want to rest 
You’re put to the test 
And you have to deliver 
Or you simply wither 

When you are better than everyone else 
You will discover you’ve only yourself 

You are the target that everyone aims 
seeing them all play the same mind games 
body language, attitudes always the same 
Why not hurt them? they want to cause pain.

It is lonely at the top,
You are challenged non stop.
