A poem

I'm Not Weak, I'm Human

by PoeticXscape

I didn't win the race.
Because I went at my own pace.
Just because I don't push myself to the limit.
It doesn't mean I'm timid.
I'm not weak, I'm human.

I could not lift the weight.
Because the size was too great.
But I am greater still for admitting defeat.
There is no shame in having to take a seat.
I'm not weak, I'm human.

I wasn't able to keep it together.
Strength can't last forever.
Everything will fall, and everything will crumble.
It is part of life, we mustn't grumble.
I'm not weak, I'm human.
