Fear of Failure

Dread of losing haunts my fantasies,

Terrified of where destiny leads me.

Will my goals reach the top of the hill,

Or fall while trying to find my path?

My quest cannot predict the future,

It’s a guideline that will lead to my journey.

Disciplining myself through determination,

Trying to climb the mountain of dreams.

Fighting challenges in this war on failing,

Combating the obstacles of life’s adversities.

Soaring to the cliff with the aim to prevail,

Driven by the soul to achieve pure victory.

Finally reaching the top of the high peak,

Success has conquered the fear of failure.

Hi Michael,

Your poem inspired me to post an aphorism this morning, "Failure is but a stepping stone to success".  Or to quote the great F.D.R., "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"!  Lots of deep thoughts in your lovely work.

Peace and love,

xox Larry
