Failed Child

I try and try hard

But I always fail

I am ashamed and tired

I feel like being in a jail


I am a failed child

Can't touch success

Parents feel ashamed

They only get stress


I am scared of my future

Don't know if I will live

Is success everything in life?

Can't we forget and forgive


In measuring success

We forget to live

In judging failures

We forget to love and give


Is that what life is now?

Success and failure calculation

We measure it by seeing faces

There is only pain and depression


Am I really a failed child?

If I can't be the number one

I know how to live and smile

Doesn't it mean that i won?
