Tired of Failure
you get tired of failure
sometimes,
you get tired of expectations
only finding reverse gear –
when any forward gear would advance the situation
i have coped with absolute rejection
i have been blown off course
but then find new directions
sometimes i feel out of the loop
and on a circular track
i need a new route
even if where you take me is paradise
i know itās a place thatās so right
but everyone needs something to help with the fights
rejection has always come for free
that’s the package, the one assigned to me
expectation was here,
then it was lost at sea
let’s conquer all this fear and let’s see what you find in me
James Garratt – September 2006
