Afraid of Failure

Contributed by InfinitePoet on Monday, 30th July 2007 @ 06:02:55 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



Afraid of FAilure
Discover hidden agenda's
within the fasade of A
"Loyal Friendship"....

Deter the fatal pact
that the Evil Fence sitter
has in mind

Search the depth of
your being for
A purpose & A
Vision

Envision A fate as
dark& as undesirable as
your worst nightmares
YOU CONTROL
YOUR
~DESTINY~
choose who sets your
Spirit free
AND
DOn't loose sight of
REALITY,
Duality is Apart of ME
WHo else would I be?
Not complete without
LOYALTY
Family seem to be
Clowning me & doubting me
If only they could
sail my sea
Then would I seem
so Doomed to be
A loser
so cowardly &
Overly Protective,
Hard headed?
Maybe
But I look straight into
Reality
and recognize
how my actions will
determine
if my future has already
become one
undeniable
Fatality
or will I remain
A true
FAILURE
with A
Street Level MENTALITY??...................

Over all I liked it. Only suggestion I have would be to break apart the last stanza at
"Hard headed?
Maybe

But I look straight into..."

Look ahead and get your face out of the sand the poem says that you are a defeatist. Write about the good things that have happened to you over your life. I wish you well bern.

this was a pretty nice write..i enjoyed it..it had a fairly decent flow....i particularly liked the end ..."...or will i remain a true FAILURE with a street level MENTALITY??.."
the beginning was a little choppy..wasn't sure what to think..till i got further in..but...it was still nice.

Loved it. Genius. I don't usually like that many poems I am very selective and picky. Very good. I am very admirable of you. Keep it up.
