Blame
Failure's specter shadows my days,
In dreams, I'm lost in an endless maze.
Less ego, more teamwork, I see,
Could've altered fate's decree.
When projects blaze, then swiftly fall,
Blame lands squarely, at my call.
Seeking help, if ideas stall,
Collaboration, best of all.
Dreams revisit failures old,
Two decades gone, yet still untold.
Changing jobs to hide the pain,
Blame rests solely in my domain.
Dreams won't mend what's gone awry,
The past is past, no need to pry.
From errors made, wisdom glean,
Release the grip of dreams unseen.
A man may stumble, falter, fall,
Yet failure's not his name to call.
When blaming others clouds his view,
He loses sight of what is true.
But when he turns and takes the blame,
He learns to rise, reclaim his aim.
With newfound strength, he charts his course,
Guided by wisdom, driven by force.
