Dull eyes: golden sweat.
I have tried, and I've found my threat
Blue veins because my loss of breath
Starving: from Striving for success.
I have spotted a sight of black and gray
Known to men? I cannot say
I have found out which is true
Trying to hard can lead us bruised.

Trying to hard to succeed is worthless when it's selfish.
