Failure. A poem.

Failure

Focus blurred
Myopic haze
Heartfelt loss
Lofty goals
Beyond surfeit 
Words cease

Black hole life
No Man’s Land
Bullets punctuate
The trench line 
Horizon, just
Out of reach

Faded sunset
Limping shadow
Exhausted 
Empty tank
Endless beach
Dragging feet

There is no try

Just do
