Failures - Visitor's Poem

by Emmanuela Jolteus



I cry softly as I lay in my bed
Because I can’t get rid of these tears I shed
I lay quiet and still with these thoughts in my head
The thoughts of my failures and the millions ahead
If I could be perfect for just one night
I would prove to everyone that yes I can do right
I would stop all the problems I would stop all the fights
Oh yes to millions I would be such a sight
But no one on this earth gets that opportunity
To live with such pride and the integrity
Failure is a part of life
No one can be a perfect child, husband, or wife
So I live each day like it’s my last
I don’t focus on the future and I don’t focus on the past
I just live my life and let the time pass
Because life is a huge hour glass

Hi Emmanuela, thanks for sharing this inspiring poem! Many of us wished to be perfect or lead perfect lives and cried tears of frustrations or helplessness when we thought we were failures. But it's hardly possible to lead a life without mistakes or failures and hoped that everything was perfect. So to live life as a "huge hourglass" would certainly make us cherish the limited time we have on earth and not be caught in the perfection trap!
