Sweet taste of victory

I dream a dream of a better life

I will make it come true

I do not have to believe in myself

I just simply have to prove

all my fears and doubts untrue

 

the sweet taste of victory

 I long for

 

the sweet taste

 will purge my mouth

from the taste of sweat and tears

I will have on my tongue for years

 

a journey on this path to dreams

is not an easy road

it is        my passion

it is       my dream

and it’s worth every burden load

[Joshua W. Harris]

This is a beautiful piece, and I found I could connect to it much more potently because of how eerily similar it is to the mind and situation of a main character I am currently writing.
A beautifully described struggle, and the wonderful feeling of a struggles worth. =]

I really enjoyed this poem because it showed that you are striving for your dreams and what you really want. You are telling yourself and others that you will reach your goals and you are highly motivated.

this is very nicely written and well thought out

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A very melancholy and heartfelt piece. It has a tinge of hope but you need to believe it. Is 'bourdon' not 'burden'?

[gombeggar]

between your poem and the pic...i am reminded of terry gilliam's film 'brazil' and the wanting of freedom the main character there has...beyond that...u have a very good poem here...i like the 2 lines before the last and the way u space them
