Mistakes and Regrets

Regrets can be really tormenting and painful
some people believe we need to be very careful
to ensure that our pasts are free from them
and from mistakes which has brought down mighty men

they hunt our pasts like spirits in the Night
they kill our spirits and sometimes crushes thy
hopes by reminding us of what we could not do right
not minding our future plans, not minding why

but they crush only those that let it
mistakes are not their to kill but to make you stronger
the past is the past ,leave it
or else you would be stuck in it, which does not help however


Great men do not look at the past
they do not remember mistakes
knowing that life is short, they move fast
always looking at the future , doing whatever it takes


Have in mind that you are a like a great man
be you a male or a female, believe you can  and you can
as you believe this,regrets and mistakes become useless
you become stronger and you become limitless
