Victory Poem by Dashaun Rashod Snipes

In the midst of chaos and strife
Amidst the struggles of this life
I stand tall, head held high
For I have tasted victory's sweet nigh
Though doubts may creep in, like a thief
And fear tries to steal my belief
I hold on to a hope, so bright
For I know victory is worth the fight
Even when the days seem dark
And it feels like I've missed the mark
I remind myself of battles past
Of triumphs won, that forever last
For victory is not always loud
Sometimes it's found in standing proud
In refusing to give up the fight
Even when everything's not alright
It's a quiet whisper, a steady flame
That fuels my heart to never be tamed
It's the courage to rise again
No matter how hard, no matter when
For victory is not just a destination
But a journey of determination
It's the strength to keep moving on
Even when the road seems too long
So I may not always feel it enough
But I'll keep holding on to this love
This belief that victory is mine
Even when it's hard to define
For I am victorious, even in doubt
For within me, victory shouts
And though it may not always be clear
I am victorious, and that's enough to bear
So when the doubts start to creep
And I struggle to go to sleep
I'll remind myself of this truth:
Victory is mine, and I have the proof.
