Holding back tides
building inner pressures
recoiled determination
failure driven succession
multiplying pride exponentially
overcoming impossible obstacles.

Tidal wave letting loose
surfing within the mind
trained as gladiator
educated to succeed
from a professional manner.

In a faith which defies logic
the game never ends, even if
the score goes against you
for if you put everything into it,
you come away
triumphing as  a winner.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.
