What if I fail

Ks24

As though I could fix it.

I know I've failed.

But within failure there is success.

Not the type of success you strive for.

The success of knowing you tried.

For oneself to succeed they need only try.

The mark left by failure is imprinted in us all.

Wear it as a badge.

A symbol of experience to show what you have learned.

Or perhaps a reminder of who not to be.

A guide of what went wrong.

A users manual for life that you write for yourself.

It is okay to fail.

    A fail doesn't make a failure, failing to try again does. I enjoyed your very encouraging poem! Thank you.
