Mistakes Made Are Never Forgotten
I stand upon the Precipice of life
Do I leap forward or do I fall back?
My fate rests upon the edge of a knife
For messing things up I’ve a special knack
My life, tis void of glorious sunshine
Eternally, I’ll pay for this mistake
My life, does slumber in darkness Divine
Eternally, my chest burns with heartache
I used to see a Golden Crusader
I thought myself clever, a mastermind
Now I can see, a broken invader
How could I have been so foolishly blind?
And though my choice I shall always regret,
A lesson once learned, I will not forget.
