Behind Every Mistake


There is a dull moment to light-
Your reflecting shadow off fright, 
When you aren't afraid to fight... 
Then you are ready to gladly invite, 
Lesson(s) behind every mistaking night

You have spent with the wrong person, 
To put right cum morning but it worsen. 

There is an attracting awful example:
Your FEELING AMONG attitudes sample, 
When you seems outdated like Eve's apple, 
Then moment defines you next to trample... 
Lesson(s) behind every mistaking couple

You have become without check, tiggers¡
To remind you of past funs; present rigors. 

There is a chance to be yourself, just you;
Your life rather attract others' standards too, 
When hard work should have checked overdo,
Then you frankly rejected its substantial review...
Lesson(s) behind every mistaking view

You have misinformed those that need JUST YOU to stay, 
To  know their class you belong; fake life led them astray... 

I hope you are still glad, 
To be happy and not sad. 
When what fun gives many a lad
Backfired cum regrets, such fad! 

Is thrilling and exploring... 
To remember such, adoring! 
When you want a home, restoring... 
Betwixt then and now seems boring. 

I hope it isn't too late, 
To correct and actuate-
What FAKE duly overrate;
Be glued to its real state.
