Nine Little Trophies
Nine little trophies, all in a line
Polished, statuesque, and radiant
Reflecting the feats that I call mine
Standing together, a golden shrine
To the person I yearned to become
To the person I hoped to define
Confining myself is asinine
I am more than my accomplishments
Time to move on from the golden nine
