In the eyes of the victor

In the eyes of the victor, one sees glory.
A feeling of satisfaction sought and finally achieved
The athlete deserving of his medal
Fighting to be the best
A history of legends fighting for their position.
Nothing else exists except victory.
A battle to the finish
Where the winner wins
And the one who loses must watch and question
A lifetime of dreaming
Made a reality within a minute or a nightmare for eternity.
Should there be only one?
With the best of the best can there be a loser?
If one beats the quest within himself, then what in life can be a greater accomplishment?
In the eyes of the victor, one can do anything.
Whatever it may; maybe within one.
In the eyes of the winner, saying no is not a choice
In the eyes of the victor, the win is worth the fight.
For the fight is the battle in the glory of the game.
