Being an Entrepreneur

Money is the least of your concern, time and repute are also gone,
Success has many fathers, when you fail, you fail alone.
For every unicorn out there, billions fold in the year one,
The nest egg exhausted way back, but you are still not done.
 
The mirage alluring you forward, has taken your prime of youth,
Shattered illusions are progress, are lies for the heart to soothe. 
'You do not fail, you learn', inching closer to product market fit,
No oasis in sight, with every step you take, you lose yourself a bit.

Why venture into the desert, you can play in the sand pit at home,  
Why stake your honor for this quest- not in a day was built Rome. 
Its a long and arduous journey, that only fools can partake,
If you don't get the Grail, that too in time, many lives are at stake.  

Today indeed, I'll hit the jackpot, to believe this daily I've got to be insane,
But would I trade these delusions for a job, aren't they the reasons I'm the man I became.
