Imperfect Student

I am learning still
and in my learning
I fail and forget lessons
that I have been taught
I must always reach
for humility and under
standing at these times
I acknowledge my
failures so that I may
grow and move
past them
I am growing
I am learning
I am imperfect
I am learning
I am becoming
whole piece by
piece day by day

Student

I asked myself
what is it I must learn
from this life

Kindness
Honesty
Forgiveness
Freedom from
that which
obscures
the soul

There is more
There is always more

Lessons presented to me
Perpetual student

Readying myself
before the next life
