Mistakes In Myriad

A bonfire of guilt burns. A tunnel of thoughts dismayed. A timeline of wasted moments alive. A lava of regret fulminates in a sea of scrutiny, all flood and drown. Some bad grades in a long forgotten test An unwashed stain still causing pain. The little slip ups of minor blunders Messed up faux pas countless numbers. All that reaps is not all that you sow lessons packed within, with every mistake I grow Standing in their shoes...so well now I know. Secrets stashed within dusty cupboard hidden silhouettes never discovered all overcomed by time, my mistakes in myriad. Yes,..in my long list of myriad mistakes There's only one that I will never overcome The twinkle in your eyes... that I mistook as love. My fate still shines in your two mistaken stars. 7th September 2019 Sponsor Chantelle Anne Cooke Contest Name Overcoming Mistakes
