If I Win One Day..... Poem by Eva Clara Harahap

If I win one day...
I will be dancing to the wind...
Smiling the whole day...
Shaking hands endlessly with the crowd...

Victory will not deny me....
The crown will be mine to keep...
Until all bees will watch over me...
And nightmares will fall into their sleep..

I am the winner today....
Not because i know what will be there tommorow...
Just because i dont have a sorrow...
To regret anything on the morrow...

I will always be the winner....
Just because i know to make things better...
No loser can do it...
For a winner never quit...

I know i am the winner...
For winning takes talent...
But to repeat takes character...
All the losers will then be silent...

If one day i dont win...
I will do it over and over again...
Until all stars bored of me...
For praying loudly under their name..

I will never, ever, and ever give up...
To those big shout mouths...
Who knows nothing of Victory...
As if they are Queen of Victoria...
Who dressed up in pariah...

And If i dont win one day...
I will still be dancing to the wind...
Smiling the whole day...
Shaking hands endlessly with the crowd...

As winning is the same as losing...
Only a winner recognise this...
It takes one courage to feel the blessing....
In the event of winning or losing...
