Wins and Losses

In life,
                      Sometimes we win
               And sometimes, we lose.
            But I've come to realize that,
                      Some wins hurt
 While some losses grace me with peace.
       Maybe, not all wins are meant to be
                        Chased after.

I arrived on your poetry after your comment on mine and found a deep and striking music within them. This poem particularly has a depth of poignancy in 'but ive come to realize that some wins hurt' a truth that runs through us all. Thank you for your poetry. love and peace janine
