Around life’s corner

Failure’s waiting train

Our very fiber

Split open with pain

 

Chasing newest dreams

Success sometimes waits

Failure comes knocking

What will be life’s fate?

 

Unavoidable

Failure hitting hard

Inevitable

Drawing life’s harsh card

 

Fear of failure breathes

Spreading, holds us back

Life fogging over

Success now off track

 

Vulnerable vibes

Feeling passed over

Alone in darkness

Where’s life’s sweet clover?

 

Lessons from failure

Past trials teach us

Embrace them and learn

Ride fortitude’s bus

 

With renewed purpose

Learn while improving

Plus motivation

Success now moving

 

From the words of American writer, Meg Dowell:  “Failure will teach you to be vulnerable.  Failure will show you what it means to chase a dream.  More importantly, your past failures will change the way you value your successes.”
