Loser

a poem by Vamsi Krishna Madasu

I am a loser.
I get mocked upon by people,
because I am a loser.
My word has not got any value,
Why?
because I am a loser.

My value is null,
my existence is void,
my personality is bankrupt,
but still, I live to say that,
I am a loser.

People forget me,
no-one is my friend,
even close kith and kin detest me,
Why?
because I am a loser.

I have no success to be proud of,
no compliments from anyone,
no prizes to show to others,
but still, I exist just to say,
I am a loser.

But have you wondered , why I am a loser?
To say, luck didn’t favour me would be foolish.
I am a loser, because my dreams are shattered.
What I think, I can’t do.

But folks, give me a chance,
give me time and give me the thing that I cherish the most,
Encouragement.
And I will conquer the world to dethrone:
the loser in me.
