The Real Me, What I Feel, What I See

Failed

The moment you think you're ready

You've practiced all you could

You thought you could make it

That all came crashing down in an instant

Nobody knew how much that moment meant to you

You thought that nothing could stand in your way

That maybe, just maybe this was your chance

And how excited, but nervous you were for your chance.

When you make that one mistake, you freeze

Then you realize you failed

You kept going hoping you still had a chance

But you screwed up again, and again, and again

You knew at that moment you could've done better

If only you practiced and tried harder

Maybe that was the case

Or maybe there was nothing you could do

A/N: I wrote this today at the region band competition. I sucked so bad! There were 20 Bass Clarinets who tried out and I made 16th chair. I sucked. I have to try again next year.
