A Pyrrhic victory is a victory with such
a devastating cost that it is tantamount to defeat. Someone who wins
a Pyrrhic victory has been victorious in some way; however, the
heavy toll negates any sense of achievement or profit (another term for this
would be "hollow victory").
How does the win feel?
congratulations to you
you fought to achieve it at any cost
battling for a few minutes of feel good
you suffered a mortal loss
I use the word mortal
because the win seems to have you feeling rather bold
but what you're
really celebrating has ostensibly stolen your soul
because you're so power and ego driven in what you say and do
you fail to see how the enemy manipulates you
so, when you tell the story in pride, and yes, I know you'll
tell
don't forget to tell the part where the victory ends in Hell
