Failure Poems
FAILURE
by Tanisha Grover
Let's talk about it,
Let's undergo through it,
Let's counterreason it,
Let's acknowledge it,
Let's not bound to it,
Let's not be scared of it,
Let's not overthink it,
Let's not allow it to demolish our dreams,

by David Dulzaides
Reverberating imperfections shade the glimmer of hope,
While the smell of death dilutes the billowing smoke.
Breath after breath we choke on our own existence ,
Why do we continue this game,
What’s with this unbridled persistence?
A blessing or a curse we shall never know,
In this bias world we live in we reap what we sow.

Oh! With What Unspeakable Anguish
by Carl Halling
Oh! With what unspeakable anguish
Do I regret the vocation
I came so close
And so oft to having
The sweet acclamation
That might have been mine.
Had I tried and failed,
That would scarcely concern me,
Yet, I squandered my resources

Living Wrong
by Drew Schoenfeld
It now seems
There are consequences
To living wrong
Only one choice
Replicates
Enough to make
The difference
Enough to wake
The cosmos
For a midnight

A Fool Has No Access To Success
by mv venkataraman
A fool gets cheated,
He gets easily defeated,
He has never repeated,
But, has only retreated,
He has never completed,

The futility of Joy
by Corben Bruce
I lie at night with music playing,
I convince myself it is to inspire
to create or feel or help me sleep
Instead i use it to drown the thoughts from my mind
An empty canvas with bright colours
I lie with eyes open in the darkness
for to close them is to invite images to fill the void
When they are open i see nothing
but closed i can see everything

Alone, I wept and confronted my plight
by Adison Ahuja
In the depths of struggle, I confronted my plight,
With trepidation and uncertainty, my soul bled.
Alone, I wept, fears concealed, hidden from sight.
Weeks stretched on, casting shadows of blight,
As I grappled with the weight that lay ahead.
In the depths of struggle, I confronted my plight.
Fearful of disappointing, my heart took flight,
Desiring to honor those who believed in me, I pled.

Ink-Stained Heart
by A.F. Sh
I try to put my heart into ink,
To spill its secrets upon the page,
But the words falter and fail,
Like broken wings refusing to fly.
Each stanza is a battlefield,
Where my heart wages a losing war,
Ink spills, but the essence eludes,
Leaving only fragments of longing.

Chasing Dreams and Fading Stars
by Oscar Auliq-Ice
I am a traveler in this life,
Drifting through days and nights,
Chasing dreams and fading stars,
Hoping to find my place, my bars.
The world is vast, and I am small,
Yet I have a voice, a story to tell,
Of love and loss, joy and pain,
Of all that makes life worth the strain.
