!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I, Capture Forever...and Clasp it Tight Within My Hand...

On Summit's Peak For All to Hear...I Shout Out: "I'm the Man!"

I, Shout for Victory...For All That Has Been Attained...

Both You and I Fought so Hard to Get Here...Now Look at All We've Gained!

A Long and Unending Path formed ahead...As I trudged steadily one step...after another...

With Each Footstep I took...I watched the Plans to Hold Me Back...Slowly Begin to Smother.

Victory, Power, and Determination Prevail...

Let No Sign of Defeat Be Told which Pertains to this Tale!

Thinkest Thou...That you would hold me back with a taunting gesture or an unkind word...?

Don't underestimate me for a moment...If Iron sharpens Iron... Imagine then...What then made the edge on my sword ?

Don't ever think you know exactly how to defeat me for certain...

I'm in this for the long haul...And...This Show's not over...'Til I close the Curtain!

For I will ride off into the Sunset...And it will be in a Blaze of Glory...

My Final Chapter...Which No One Will Believe...Will Tell the Whole Part of the Story.

A Wide Brush will be used for Painting My Life's Portrait...And My Path...

And it will tell the story of who I was...Long into that of my aftermath.

You think me...One Insignificant Man...Upon which there is no unique distinction...?

I Stand as the One...Who'll defeat Whatever Stands in My Way...I'll Defeat it Beyond Recognition !

Have'nt you ever just wanted to shout out Victory...For no good reason at all?

Have you Ran the Race that's before you...And pushed on...Even after you hit the Wall?

Have you stared down Time on this planet...And realized that you're still part of the living?

Have you taken all there is to take from them...and taken all that they have given?

Have you Climbed a Mountain Peak... Only to Find...

The Mountain Peak you Conquered...Was one you were Always Destined to Climb?

For each Part of My Life...I know I Captured each and every day...

Do you think differently of me .."Poof, Be Gone!"...You're in my way!

For those who are Hurting...For those that think that they don't have a Prayer...

Listen to these words of Victory I Say....And Know that Someone Listened to You...Someone Does Care.

I, Capture Forever...I Have Been Through Things All Alone...Where No One Was Taking Notes...

So.. Whomever Shall Try And Thwart Against Me...I Will Ram Victory Back Down Their Throats!

Do You Feel the Victory...That Is Well Within Your Grasp...?

Then Shout Out..."You Have The Victory"...And...Go Kick That "Defeated Attitude" Of Yours' _ss!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well...While You Might Find This Poem...Highly Unusual. I Find It Very Encouraging And Re-Affirming!

What Else Would You Expect From a "Manly" Poetry Man...Huh? Ha!

I'd kick some butt if I could, I would, yes, but I might hurt myself, so I'll use my pen like you just did! Good job.

manlypoetryman Hub Author 2 years ago

ralwus: And you are kicking butt with the pen (or the keyboard)...especially here on Hubpages...and taking names.

And there is that old addage: The pen is mightier than the sword! So there you go, my friend. Good to see ya, C...and hope that all is well with you! Humble Regards, MPM

Very Nice, to win and conquer and believe in yourself, to win the battles in life. I like the message! Dont stop fighting, I came to drop by because I like to read some inspirations, and I got it, Memorial Day --- great day manly, I am not a defeatist so I fully appreciate this hub, Maita

prettydarkhorse: Something about that smile on your avatar pic tells me that you are a very positive person! To win and conquer and believe in yourself...and to win the battles in life...Heck ya'! That's all we get in this world sometimes...is the ability to get back-up...when we should'a been kicked down for good! No one can take away from you a Victory that is truly yours...alone! I have a feeling I am preaching to the choir...if I type this out to you, though...Ha! Best of Memorial day to you...and all it stands for...Maita. Thank you...so much for stoppin' in and readin' this one...boldly claiming "I, Capture Forever!" Really appreciate your comment...as well. Best of regards to you, MPM
