Rhetorical Questions

Have you ever asked yourself 
why did you even try 
everything you believed was true
you now believe to be a lie

just remember one thing
there's no one to blame
Life is nothing to play with 
even if it feels like a game

some choose to take risks 
others leave it in the hands of fate
why did you even try 
because you knew time wouldn't wait 

how do you measure success
what is your Holy Grail 
and because you didn't reach it
do you consider that a fail

is that when you asked yourself
why did you even try 
maybe you saw an opportunity
one you couldn't let pass by 

you've heard stories of regret
more than you care to remember
some have even started January 
the same way they ended December

why did you even try
because you took an oath
and of all the promises you made yourself
the most important one was growth

so it's okay to be upset
if you're not where you want to be 
just know there's success in trying
but sometimes it's difficult to see
