James Howerton Poet Prose Poetry

Disappointment

Disappointment 
can turn into frustration 
if you let it.
But in reality,
disappointment 
is nothing more than 
a temporary delay,
a distraction.
So get up,
stand up and get
motivated.
Don't get depressed.
you are highly blessed.
This is just a bump
in the road.

Disappointment 
can turn into dissatisfaction 
if you let it.
But in reality,
disappointment 
is nothing more than 
an educational tool.
There is a lesson to be
learned.
So don't get put off,
get back on course.
Focus on your dreams.

Disappointment 
can turn into disenchantment 
if you let it.
But in reality,
disappointment 
is only a temporary delay.
Better times are coming,
there's a light at the end
of every tunnel.
Don't let
disappointment 
control you.
