Failure
I was told that failing wasn’t an option,
That to fail was lack of will,
Procrastination,
And lack of persistence,
I disagree,
Failure, time and time again,
Were the lessons,
The reminders that nothing is permanent,
And none of us in control,
Living by the path given when we are born,
I tried to hold onto a path,
A business,
A marriage,
A lifetime with so much noise,
In this moment,
I realize,
That the failures,
Inevitable and concise,
Were my ticket to understanding,
My way of perceiving,
My route,
And when I let go of my ego,
When I saw failure for all that it is,
I accepted that the change,
Lies within,
It lies in our very makeup,
And the resilience,
To pick up the pieces,
And move on.
