The Best Mistake

You made the mistake and now,
your afraid to face this day. 

Your thoughts are racing through 
and through.

You wonder if your family looks at
you as a disgrace, but you'er mother
takes you and reasures, your very 
much loved in grace.

Even though your much to young
for this breathing little thing this
has become.

You couldn't just throw it out
like it was a peice of trash.

So you grow up and take the
path that led you to your best
mistake for years to come.

Smile~You know, I am really enjoying the way in which You write Dear Gifted Emily!!!:):) You cause the reader to ponder deeper as to what exactly You are saying!? Kind of like an abstract painting~wherein there could be found different conclusions by multiple people!? Yet, what makes You even greater within my opinion~"You Seem To Hold Faith~And You Wish To Impart True Wisdoms!!!:):) Smile~And I love these things!!!:):)~"Much Love & Warmth Always To 'You & Yours,' John!!!"~Bye Dear Emily!!!:):)
