My Favorite Mistake

its all behind
let it stay there
am moving forward
please help me

I am not drowning
I just woke up from 
a long nightmare
that I thought was a sweet dreams

how I wish your still there
just the way we we're before
but time has changed
and things sometimes are not there where it use to be

but then I want to hold you in my arms
want to feel your warmth all over me
want to hear your soft voice in my ears
it's my favorite mistake
its all behind
let it stay there
am moving forward
please help me

I am not drowning
I just woke up from 
a long nightmare
that I thought was a sweet dreams

how I wish your still there
just the way we we're before
but time has changed
and things sometimes are not there where it use to be

but then I want to hold you in my arms
want to feel your warmth all over me
want to hear your soft voice in my ears
it's my favorite mistake - 8/6/07

Michael; This is pretty good. I never thought of a favorite mistake. I tell you that the worst mistake that you can make is not learning anything from it. Have sweet dreams. Lucilla

Lol, Thanks for the comment Lucilla. I just happen to see that sentence and it's a song title and it made me thinking as you do. What is my favorite mistake? Then I went writing. Yes we all learn from them, at least we should. But the one favorite you should have is something you thought was right and fun and then realized it move forward and succeed. Good AM!
