No Champion Stay Down

What is will, but a vow,
So strong when you are down,
Makes you reach that brow,
Lefts you up when you frown?

What is will, but words for you,
The ones that will affect,
The ones that make you do,
What you can and can’t collect?

What is will, but a decision to make,
A decision to yourself,
That you will raise the stake,
And never reach for that shelf?

What is will, but something you design,
You create it with your desires,
It’s something that you can’t define,
As you get swallowed by the fires?

What is will, but a conclusion,
You make to start a life,
It is not delusion,
It’s the drive to marry your wife.
