Failure

I accomplish things for so long then I fail

Like a train on a long trip and it derails
I don't stop what I begin
But the failure continues to win
I put my heart into everything I do
But I continue to fail what else is new

As my drill sergeant told me way back in the day: 'You either succeed---or you learn! Smiles, Gershon P.S., Welcome to Poetry Soup, by the way. Stick around. I think you'll like it here! Cheers, Gershon

You can get knocked down, but you don't have to stay there you have the choice to get back up and learn and try again.

As hard as it is, failure is part of life for many. The true failure is giving up. As long as a person doesn't give up, there is another chance for success.
