Failure

Christ
The way we darted around
This subject
The subject of you
Your rise
And continuous fall
Your fear of failure
Is not mine
Not at all
I told you a million times
I’m not scared of living
But you
Your heart smiles
Inwards
Burning your soul
Did your eyes ever glow?
I was prepared to irrigate this land
Help you grow
But you know it’s true
You can only reap
What you sow
I watch your barrenness
Fester like a sore
The failure that you fear
Is already
Yours
