Win or lose

I’ve always been a bad loser

I find losing really hurts,

Externally I show grace

But within me I am a state,

Failure always feels so bad to me

Whereas achievement feels so good I believe,

So I give everything and more to succeed,

For I relish the enjoyment that it brings

But something always reminds me,

If you succeed then also do it gracefully,

And remember not to gloat

Because there’s no class in that and that’s important to know,

When you succeed.
