I have lost at last,
The reason is unknown,
Let me close the past,
Better let me not moan,
Critics may badly lambast,
Patience be by me shown,
Skill was accompanied by will,
Still the result was only nil,
Will God give me peace as pill?
Let me just try once again,
Hoping success may flower,
Let me take sincerely pain,
Via a severe sweat-shower,
In the end, I may surely gain,
Better to be a firm believer!
