In the early morning I woke up,

the red chart dancing on the screen.

High leverage, hopes swelling,

but the market said: "be patient, don't be hasty."

One by one the balance receded,

like waves kissing the shore.

Margin call, you came uninvited,

bringing a message: learn, don't hesitate.

Now I sit in contemplation,

reminiscing about the lots I once borrowed for profit.

It's okay, this is a lesson,

tomorrow I will look at the future again.
