The Far Side of Failure
On the far side of failure,
Beyond the path of rejection
Far past the ghosts
Of doubt and dejection.
Just a bit farther
Than life's toughest question.
Over the stream running,
After each lost election.
Farther along
Than the extra mile.
Floating further
Than the lonely isle.
Beyond the sign:
"The buck stops here."
Over pools reflecting -
The faces of fear.
Over chasms deep
Where things seem worst,
Through hardened deserts,
Overcome by thirst.
Even surpassing
The road traveled less
Lies the hidden valley
Of massive success.
