I Wrote Something Once

I wrote something once
It was deep and meaningful 
And I threw it away
Because that's what I do

It was a mistake
But these mistakes 
Keep repeating 
Repeating
Repeating 
Until I can't anymore 

I wrote something once
It was deep and meaningful 
But I lost it
Because that's what I do 

It wasn't a mistake 
But these mistakes 
Keep repeating 
Repeating 
Because I won't anymore

I had something once
But these mistakes 
Keep 
Repeating 
Until I won't let them
Anymore

A very nice written poem, it happens, I think of my poems at night while in bed, very good ideas come in my mind, but when I wake up, some of them are lost, so it happens, and I believe life is also the same,it s all about doing mistakes and moving on, a nice poem, however I want you to read my poems as well and tell me how they are
