A Reminder Of Failure

Some accomplishments feel like the beginning of a storm

A peaceful thing but then the realness hit

What comes after it?

Now it because something you wish to forget

A waste of time

Even a waste of money

Where do you store the memories of a useless achievement?

Something that most celebrate and worked hard to achieve

Frame it

But it just a reminder of a failure

That brings up sad memories

Worked too hard to throw it away

A reminder of a journey you persevered through

That part of your life don’t seem like it had any purpose for your life now

But maybe the purpose will be found later

Don’t regret starting over

That doesn't mean you were a failure

Just a reminder that you know how to pivot
