Arithmetic

ArithmeticI am the sum of my successes,
The total of my failures,
The proof of my loves,
The result of my disappointments.

I grow by adding new successes,
Continuing to fail,
Demonstrating real love,
Suffering disappointments.

Positives and negatives,
Form a harmonious existence,
The good with a bad,
The right with a wrong.

I’m an uneasy equation,
And mostly well balanced,
Q.E.D. of life,
But not without fault.
