Triumph


(poems go herepeople make mistakes

it is in our nature to do 
but it is difficult to admit
when a big one was made by you
no one is perfect
but when fighting to be
the fight seems irrelevant
after mistakes one two and three
you want to look past it
but you can't take it back
fighting is forever
but mistakes will always attack
we learn and live with regret
and we must go on fighting
we are not undefeated
but the scores are not in writing
each battle we face is really a new fight
not counting the defeats
where your perfection was put aside
if you have disappointed before
fret no more
there will be a rematch to even the score
smile smile smile
enjoy what about life keeps you grinning
learn from the past 
and you will never stop winning
