The Frustration Of Failure
Many are driven, in life, to succeed;
success has its special allure;
most try to earn, more than they need;
for frustration, there is no cure.
Gold is the serpent’s greatest temptation;
most feel that they can’t get enough;
gold cannot pave the road to salvation;
out of frustration; many give up.
We are given all the gifts; that we need;
to fulfill our anointed role;
it takes our persistence; for us to succeed;
faith is given, each soul.
Everyone is born with a divine purpose;
ordained by the Master, above;
often it seems, hidden neath the surface;
our ultimate purpose is love.
Still, frustration can stand in our way;
love can become quite elusive;
we search the world; day after day;
trying not to become obtrusive.
I keep on seeking the love of my life;
knowing she must be somewhere;
tragedies and failures, stab like a knife;
while dreaming of one to care;
Stubborn persistence; keep driving me on;
beyond resistance most will endure;
we must persevere, till all resistance is gone;
overcoming the frustration of failure.
