Failed again; only this time I lose everything, including my mind.
I plan to wake tomorrow with the intention of trying again.
Your life is your life,
Don't let it be clubbed into dank submission.
I know some "thing" is watching, listening closely.
"It," sends me hope through whispers, whispers only I can hear.
I am scrutinized, ostracized, berated for even paying attention to "that thing."
I am hurt. I want to quit. But I lost everything already, what more do I have to lose?
I act again. I try again. I fail again.
I've given myself the piece of advice to: hold these failures close to my heart. They will pave the way. One stepping stone after another.
You will ride life into perfect laughter.

I've given myself the piece of advice to: hold these failures close to my heart. They will pave the way. One stepping stone after another.
You will ride life into perfect laughter.
