Can't Fail

Can't Fail

A Poem by Jack...





Can’t fail

 

I’ve traveled this highway of zig zag emotions

Cried every tear drop my heart it could spare

Lost out in love with the best of intentions

Stood on a corner so keenly aware

 

Looked in the mirror and saw my reflection

Counted the marks in the pain I did find

Pushed it aside leaving little detection

Smiled at this life at the front of my mind

 

Put on my pants in a fit of conviction

Pulled on these boots as I head for the door

Shoved every fear in a forceful eviction

Facing the world that does greet me once more

 

Confident eyes stare in every direction

Finding each dream will become ever true

Picking a clover to fill my collection

Grabbing that rainbow now long overdue

 

All that I am is man of precision

Strong as can be to the end of the rail

Love me or leave me, becomes your decision

I will be me for I know I can’t fail

Your talent never ceases to amaze me Jack. I love everything about this uplifting piece, but most of all the feeling it left me with after reading it.

Confident eyes stare in every direction
Finding each dream will become ever true
Picking a clover to fill my collection
Grabbing that rainbow now long overdue
Brilliant!

This is an excellent and wise philosophy. All we can be is who we are, and it is up to the others if they accept or do not. A great piece that stands strong, Jack!
