Failure.... I Think Not....


I was knocked down, stepped on

Ignored by the all of them

Never spoke out

Just spoke with a pen

It seemed like everything I tried to do, just wasn’t working

I felt like a failure every day

However, I could not keep that feeling

That just was not the way

So I got up, became strong

The only way I can

I fixed most of my mistakes

To be a Better Understanding Man

If I did something wrong, I strived to do right

Tried to win if I lost

It seemed like one big journey

However, it feels good you have won

Success is there

You just have to reach it

It might be hard

At least you tried something

I accomplished my goals

It took a lot

Am I failure?

I think not….
