MisTAKES

by Janel Smith




I have made plenty of mistakes in my day
Some in pencil
Some in pen
They are getting so hard to erase
Too thick to embrace
Too hard to intake
Too many to unmake
Just too many in life itself
Where does it begin in myself
When does it end
How can I get to the beginning of start
when I’m trying so hard to finish the end?
To undo a list that can’t be undone 
Which makes it even harder to become
A person of better virtue, life, ideas, morals, and values
Trying to change the mistakes that have become me
