Stumbled

I stumble, tumble and lose my way;

I don’t find my way back - just another way out.

I run behind, besides and ahead of people;

I rarely win, but always complete the race, at my own pace.

I learn, mislearn and unlearn things;

I don’t know it all, but just enough to get by.

I get loved, hated and ignored;

I play the wrong notes, but learn to touch the right chord.

I obey, disregard, disobey;

I make my own decisions, I make my own mistakes.

I’m happy, hungry and complacent;

Am I arrogant or simply ignorant?
