Failure

Failure in inevitable, 
It is a necessity in disguise
It is to learn,unlearn and relearn
It is to teach lessons of life.

Failure in all spheres,
Be it love or career
Be it family or desire.
It is a stepping stone.

That darkness revives in you
The spirit to rise,
The spirit to fight,
The spirit to fight back again.

It is that Whetstone , 
That can ignite a life.
It brings you closer to yourself, 
To bring out the best in you.
