Oh crap

oh crap

By MysteryPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Oh crap, a muttered sigh,

A moment of frustration and woe.

A slip of the tongue, a little sigh,

A feeling that's hard to let go.

It's the reality check, that we all need,

A reminder that life's not always smooth.

It's the stumble, the fall, the tiny seed,

Of a new beginning, a path to renew.

For in that moment, of "Oh crap",

We see the truth, that we're not in control.

But it's also a chance, to pick ourselves back,

And rise from the ashes, with a bolder soul.

So when you hear yourself say, "Oh crap",

Remember, it's just a moment, it will pass.

For the real victory, is getting back on track,

And living life, with courage, grace and class.
