Daily Prompt

Rare compliment
It takes a lot to get a compliment from people
Whatever I do, they are silent
I don’t wait for one
I’m not trying to embiggen the problem

I don’t care though
I function without one
Rare compliment I get, but I take it

A Winner, am I not
I don’t get many likes
I waste my time writing
At least it feels like that
Another winner takes it all
I’m not a loser
I’m not a winner, either
Another winner takes it all
Luck is not on my side
Maybe I have no talent
Another winner takes it all
I’m left with small pieces
That’s better than nothing
Another winner takes it all
But a winner doesn’t always win

But a failed one is a pest

Don’t worry; another one will soon be hailed
In my world
