Back Up Again

Falling over may cause a lot of blood and pain,
but there is a lot that you can gain.
From the mistakes that you create,
to the blisters and aches.
You can always get back up again!
That’s true and you can’t complain.
These injuries, mistakes and errors,
can only make you become stronger for the better!
All this inaccuracy that we build,
makes us brighter, smarter and therefore more skilled.
Every time you think you may have a choice,
well your wrong and that’s coming from a voice.
Your only option is to continue,
because that’s the sole path that can help you through.
Win or loose,
you’ve learnt something and I have to.
