Mistakes

We wonder- why we did it? Don’t know where our mind was at, What went wrong? Maybe we weren’t that strong Whilst happening, it didn’t seem that bad Was it really a mistake? Maybe we just needed a break, Break from the constant pressure, We forget about the little things that we treasure We keep scolding ourselves for the things we've done, Thinking we did them for no reason, Knowing inside very well there were reasons, Reasons we wish not to discover, Oh, this vicious suffer! Maybe we'll realise those weren’t mistakes in the first place, Just some extra know-how and experience we got to embrace.
