All of us have things we would like to forget, forgive, or do all over again. This is a poem I wrote when thinking about some of the mistakes of my past...this is what I would say to the 14 year old me, now....as I am 10 years later.
Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
But you got more than what you bartered for
Acceptance was all you wanted
From silly boys and your friends
Out of all the roads that you could've followed
Your decision was so poor
So here you are years later
Regretful for the things you're not
And all dreams you haven't got
Counting the times you did something right
But when you had to add them up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in
Pay for sins repeated
So after all you've done
Will you be forgiven?
God holds the key
HIS acceptance makes life living
So all of your mistakes
Take time to learn from them
You cannot change the past
Cast all your doubts on Him

Past Regrets
Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
But you got more than what you bartered for
Acceptance was all you wanted
From silly boys and your friends
Out of all the roads that you could've followed
Your decision was so poor
So here you are years later
Regretful for the things you're not
And all dreams you haven't got
Counting the times you did something right
But when you had to add them up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in
Pay for sins repeated
So after all you've done
Will you be forgiven?
God holds the key
HIS acceptance makes life living
So all of your mistakes
Take time to learn from them
You cannot change the past
Cast all your doubts on Him
