Deep like the sea I be   
Gathering the stones thrown at me   
Step by step I'll progress   
I'd like to see you stop me. 

Failure is good 
Teaches us to introspect   
Shows us whom to respect   
And wherein lie our prospects.

I'm learning how to read   
People, words and deeds   
More than the expressions can say   
Are emotions flitting across the face.
  
Have understood to never compare   
The lives others live with flair   
A lot of sacrifice is wrought 
To show a smile when everything is naught.

Like a candle that lights when needed   
I'm fine with lighting up my soul   
I'm born to do--so much more   
Have faith, dedication and the confidence to explore.
