PHOENIX

PHOENIX

A Poem by ankur
"

even failures teach something u know..

"

   Crimped  and  cringed, and smaller  than a palm,                                                  were  we,  when born, into  the  world  so  large!

    

    we  tried to talk, to express and to percept,

              alas! we failed, for it wasn't learnt yet.

 

                

                 thought "i can try walking down the street"

             we couldn't, for the legs were still so weak.

          

             grew up, went to school, and tried to prove,

 

 

                 that we were best,  better than rest, so cool

                  

             failed  again, for  that  wasn't  true, all fake

 

             tried everything new,exotic, and felt no safe.

                                                                                                          

 

             history repeats itself so does failure.

             life is a code that you need to decipher

 

                                                                                                     

             Nevermind! get up and shoot for the goal!

 

             repeated failures weren't to keep you slow.

 

             they were to teach,struggle out of frustration    

 

             to learn to earn  plaudit, and  the  deputation.                                                                          

             failures prepare you to face the fouls and voids

             learn from them, be human, not just an android

 

                   

             dont loose the perk, embrace your life and  just be wise

            many keep crying, but only phoenix , from ashes do rise.
