Mirror Of Regret

Mirror Of Regret

Surely life can offer more than this

I cannot believe this is all there is

Always, it is living more of the same

For this existence who can I blame ?

..................................................

Why didn't I push myself in school ?

Why did I feel I must break every rule ?

Why did I waste so much of my time ?

To not fulfil your potential is such a crime !

......................................................

The monotony of the work I have to do

Is all because I didn't think things through

When younger I should have listened more

So I don't now regret what happened before !

.........................................................

Others should take heed of my plight

For their futures they must learn to fight

When you feel you've not done your best

To look in the mirror is the sternest test !!!

Hello Richard...

There are many times that no matter how hard someone tries somewhere they can easily get off track...

Sometimes good is never good enough...

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...
