Life's Unfair
A system that pushes,
The boundary of memory,
Left me feeling useless,
With a future of drudgery,
Started off confused,
Not knowing a direct path,
Defeated and abused,
Sorted in the rough,
Initiative gathered as junctures passed,
Self-education, knowledge compounds,
Passion factored, failures do not last,
Reaching aspiration, a purpose profound,
Life follows no curriculum nor itinerary,
Perseverance and patience are life's best referee.
