Okay

Humans are fascinating.
We put hope in hope,
And put faith in disappointment.
Loneliness,
Failure,
Rejection,
They're all things we fear.
And we choose to avoid them.
Humans don't want to get hurt.
And you tell me that it'll hurt,
But I'd rather hurt trying,
Than not try at all.
Failure doesn't worry me like it used to.
I will keep my head high.
This isn't a fantasy.
It's a chance.
And while it's a slim chance,
There's no chance if I don't try at all.
It's okay.
I'll be okay.
I'm not who I used to be,
Not in the slightest,
And this time,
Failure won't use me like before.
