we are defined by our past
thinking of what cannot last
we try, yet we see
that our dreams would not be
many have fought and many yearned
to deny what they have learned
that sometimes the highest ambition
is reconciled only with contrition
despite much effort strived
it can serve a lesson to be deprived
failure can be an asset
to those who know how to assess it
knowledge gained and experience known
can be greater than success shown
a true failure will only transpire
when you lose courage to aspire
life goes on, and so we see
that though some dreams cannot be
through the struggle and the strain
from what was lost, there can still be gain
