The moment
where greatness
is recognized in the distance

The pledge
soon after made
to strive and dent history

The discovery
of given talent
slowly uncovered through transition

The struggle
of rising odds
building resistance to adversity

The progression
found in triumphs
creating confidence in one’s ability

The chance
right here and now
where everything lay on narrow lines

The challenge
to summon effort
for meeting current once distant goals

The relief
forcing belief,
with arms raised
from the moment of victory
