Sitting on their thrones,
they celebrate
Those victories and wins
piercing me as a pin.
Singing those songs
They celebrate
which herald the achievements
and the win of rights
over wrongs
They celebrate.

I looked outside
the window and myself
and found none
Never has been silence
like this one
There was still time
for my dawn to come
tunes of the victory
I just could not hum.

I had a goal
and I lived with it
walking along the unbeaten path
trying to get those circles in cubes, fit.
Perspiration paying off
when mind left off
I went alone to the forests
looking to bury my gaffe.

Yes, I will keep walking
until I get there
until I succeed
until hard work pays off
and celebrations start
There is still time
no time to halt
Before

I celebrate.
