Two Wrongs Without a Right

A mistake does not make the person when the person makes a mistake Someone can kill another, does not always make them a murderer Anybody could rob another person, though it does not brand them a thief Anybody can be accused for being in the wrong place at the wrong time Some mistakes are pointed to another in order to make their own feel better While the push every nose in their mistake like a dog who make one on the carpet Some mistakes are nit always a conscious decision, instead an anger induced blackout Leaving the stain, and the brand of anothers mistakes The murderer could have been just having a bad day Or maybe caught the robber with his hand in his pockets Creating a blackout, causing his mistakes to be unleashed Soon after rolling the robber up in the carpet where he was constantly being reminded His mistakes got worse as the stains turned into red, like his eyes After the blackout seeing how bad it looked, believing nobody would believe it was defense Carrying on his back his last mistake and a chain, ties himself down to the robber Jumping into to lake to drown his memories, and fixing his mistake
