Mistake... Poem by Lizzy Henry

Ive made a horrible mistake...
Ive said somethings Ive wanted to take back
Ive done some things I would've never done
Some things, I wish would've never happened
Mistakes...
All of them...
Every single one.
Some things I look back on
And say to myself...
Wow that was stupid...
Now I realize what I should have done
If I got to do it over again
I would've done it differently
There was a mistake
That ended in pain
I couldn't help but realize later
That again I was stupid
Why did I make that mistake?
The mistakes we make
Some people say teach us a lesson
Some end in pain
So much you would make another mistake
Just to end the other
But that mistake I wont make
Ill say I'm stupid
Which I probably am
For making that mistake
That was obvious not to make...
But I wasn't thinking
And it ended badly...
It was a mistake
I wont ever make again
Well I probably will
Ill see it coming though...
Ive made mistakes
All of us have
And Id give anything to take some of them back
And re-do it...
Any mistake...
It was a mistake
Id give anything to re-do...
