Mistakes.
Something no one wants,
But everyone makes.
Mistakes.

We’ve all been there
To the frustration, regret, and despair
A bad decision, a wrong answer on a test;
Someone you hurt, due to carelessness.

But it’s alright.
Sometimes mistakes help you see the light.
Trust the process and see how
Some have brought you where you are now!

So next time you make a mistake, don’t let it dwell
It’ll only destroy, it won’t mean well
Remember that nobody’s perfect
Just try your best to rise and correct.
