2016 in a Flash

January 7, 2017

2015 coming to a close,

concerned about what's in store.

I was 16, had so much ahead of me

yet failure rose over me multiple times this year;

driver's license, world championship horse show.

These were so important to me, 

failing made me mad. angry. dissapointed.  

with myself. 

Always trying to be better and better

Then after all this trying, I finally became better. 

Better than the person whom I was the day before.
