Keep Moving Forward
A Poem
Your vapid existence
Is not the same as persistence
You look for someone to blame
Yet, feel no shame in your disdain
Your efforts fell short
It is true
But failure or success
It is on you
Before you blame others
Remember
You have survived worse since falling from your mother
Take care in your despair
For what you may think is unfair
Is held up by more than you care to see
No path is the same
So take care, before you’re swallowed by despair
Life is a marathon
Long and winding
No sense in senseless whining
If there is nothing to learn
Sure, you feel the burn
But we must continue to churn
Before we can earn our place
At the end of the race
