Mistake
Some errors you "should not” regret;
some things should change for ever, yet
it's not like hearts to soon forget
what once they knew so fondly—
but sometimes you need not restart
despite the season of the heart,
for only reason can impart
the nature of a person.
The heart moves quickly to assess,
and far too quickly to address
by what it truly is impressed,
and lo, it's skilless effort
ends in error; shameful change
that needn't be, with needless blame
perverts each person's blameless name
for nothing.
