What is Impossible?

Impossible

Impossible is not, when everyone has tried,

And everyone has failed.

Not when men have died,

And not when men have ailed.

Impossible means not,

"I do not think I can."

Nor is it when you're stuck and caught,

Afraid to make a stand.

Impossible is a prison,

But one that will still yield.

A forbidding opposition,

But you can take this field!

Impossible is not,

When all others have lost heart.

Impossible is only when,

None, dare play their part.

But impossible is overcome,

If only you will try.

For failures, failures, and then some,

Are only there to lie.

---

"Impossible is not when everyone has tried and failed, but when everyone stops trying altogether."
