I Am A Failure

August 12, 2015

I am a failure

But I don't give in

I persevere

I continue

And then,

I triumph

My initial gauche behavior

Does not define me

Because success is near

My first impression

Will not be everlasting

I will end with fortune

I will be a surprise

To all who doubted me
