Ugh

If you fail then, try, try again

Or you'll end up where you've already been

Sometimes I get annoyed

Or maybe just paranoid

That what was is a new place to begin

    Hahaha this was so relatable. Loved it!

  • Just remember always to turn in the same direction. Eventually you'll make it through. Of course, that may be true for mazes, but in real life we call that insanity, lol.

  • This makes me think of the journey of life. Obstacles and retrying. Nailed it….
