The Choices I've Made


Failure.

My motivation and my biggest fear to date.

Do i have time or is it too late?

If i could rewind, 

and go back in time 

I would seize the world, mine.

 Instead I go to work.

I would've gone to school.

I wouldn't of been that fool that told himself the but what and if and maybe.

I would stop being such a baby.

I'd be a success.

I'd be done with all the stress,

the stress and the fear,

the fear which led me here.

The fear

of failure.
