This is my first post, a poem I wrote a few nights ago and submitted on a wallpaper design to deviant.  Hello to everyone.

21 Years of Human Error

Up against the wall now.
My guts churning and my shadow at my back.
   21 years of human error
carrying me towards this point

I see the line now
I see the line and will walk it now
At last,
I am exactly where I want to be

So long
So far
So very tired
So true.  Maybe now I can stop to catch my breath

I turn to stare down the mistakes that follow behind
Ever at my heels.
Passengers uninvited, but any company is welcome.

A strange road, that which stretches its gangly limbs behind me
Strange, and somehow it has already forgotten
my tread,
though my mistakes and I have worn it well.

Looking back one last time, and this is odd

I am proud.

Interesting write. Welcome!! Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

Welcome to Passions, ...Hero...I think that anyone who may learn from their mistakes has learned the first lesson - that we all make them. I will join you on your trip, now and then, and wave you on to your future, if I may!
