An early dirge wrapped with thoughts,
Hope you read and hear my voice,
And pick some points as food for thought,
Flowery mind gone ablaze!

It's true, I've failed my self.
How do I define the so called failure?
As a gentleman dressed in a fine navy-blue tuxedo,
Braced with circumstances and unfavorable conditions,
Perfumed with an aphrodisiac of tears,
Tossed around by self condemnation,
Wound up with chastisement,
Oh, and his frequent accolades from around-
"you are nothing to write home about."

But have we ever stooped to tinker?
That without failure, success would be alien?
Though in different spheres,
success and failure go hand-in-glove.
Failure bears the story
Success takes the glory!

Failure is not a person
Not you, not me!
It is only a compass
Telling you to maximize your capacity
"You are not a failure!"

Failure's best accomplice is mistake.
They are oftentimes interchanged.
But both pass the same message,
"You can do better!"

It is not totally bad to fail,
Mistakes are not 100% bad either,
Though they tag along consequences,
They teach you to be more careful.

Choose to forget your mistakes,
But not the lessons you learnt from them.
Step on your failure
And build a flawless success.
It's an unbroken victory!
