Don't Quit

[genial.soul]

When things go wrong,
as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging
seems uphill,
When the funds are low and
the debts are high,
and you want to smile,
but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must . . . but don't you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell
how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar.




So, stick to the fight
when you're hardest hit . . .

It's when things go wrong
that you mustn't quit.
