Trust in Fate

I tried hard to reach my goal

But my toil did not take me  

To the height aimed in my soul  

My dream determined to flee


Sometimes no matter how hard

I strived for my endeavor

Still fate might deal me a card 

With an outlook worse than ever  

 

Life is such a conundrum 

Although I can choose the path

To calculate its outcome

Is harder than Chinese math

 

To trust luck is a wiser way  

Work hard and keep doubts at bay
