Failure Is Far From Any Solution
Failing once, twice or more should be called trying
Because it takes a few times to wholly grip a lesson depending
On the individuals and their experiences
Part of living is to grasp all types of classes and courses
Which can lead to eventual success
When we fail once, we somehow win something
We reach a different or higher level, a different class
Failing must not be on the projector
Failing must not be on the monitor
Failing is when one is gone, dead, kaput and no more
When one either flees or is kicked out of the door
As long as life exists
One must fight hard, strive and persist
To pass the tests in order to be included on the winners’ list
Through making serious sacrifices or to kill the ugly beasts
Of idleness, dullness, procrastination and laziness
We must wake up, get up, stand up and be ready to rumble
At the same time, we must be insightful, clever, tough and humble
Failure stands far from any solution
Failure can never be an option
Winning is about doing positive actions
Winning is about accepting and willing to fall
To get up a few times and to walk straight, strong and tall
To defy gravity and to eventually be among the constellations.
