Retrospect

You can't change your past but you can learn from it Its not about dwelling there, but more so what you earn from it Sometimes I wish I hadn’t let others influence my prior choices But other times I'm thankful for those few truthful voices Guiding me in the right way, letting me know my wrong Creating the fight inside me, changing the tune of my song I wish you could see me now, and how much I've progressed Now I see past my accomplishments, where my faults lay to rest Blinded by reflections, who knew the mirror was convex What I thought was simple and obvious, was much more complex Today I look back and remember, how could I ever forget How you were my satisfaction, but now you're my regret.
