Failure And Defeat Poem by Ray Hansell

Life sometimes gets to the point
Where we’d all like to quit
The only thing that keeps us going
Is the belief that only loser’s quit
When one quits, one admits his failures
When one admits failure, one is defeated
So that’s why we keep going
In our minds always knowing
That everyone fails and gets defeated
But the strong one’s keep on fighting
Knowing a wrong they’re righting
Seeing the day when failure and defeat
Are two words they’ll no longer meet
