I Love My Mistakes

Why don't you ever look me in the face anymore?

Did I hurt you that bad?

Why do you always look away when I stare at your face?

I didn't mean to kill you like this.

Everyone has deserted me.

It's me against the world.

I could blame it on many things.

I could blame it on the rumors. 

Or on you.

Or on them.

Or on my past.

But I think I'll take the blame this time.

I think I'll be honest and tell the truth.

So, here it is.

The truth.

I....

I don't regret anything.

I'm sorry.

I know you want me to confess to my mistakes, and admit my sins.

But I don't regret them.

Everything I've done in the past, every mistake, every trip, every fall, every crash, every time I fucked up...

I don't regret it.

Everyone left me.

I don't regret that.

Nobody loves me.

I don't regret that.

I have my mind, my body, my soul.

I'm a healthy girl trying to find a place in this world.

And that's all I need.

I don't regret the mistakes.

I don't regret the sex.

I don't regret the parties.

I don't regret the drugs.

I don't regret the boys.

I don't regret you.

Wow, I agree with Alana very intense. The honest truth, heart on your sleeve kind of poem that kind of just punches you in the face. Then you land on the floor and the breath is knocked out of you. Brilliant.

Mistakes, we all make them. It is how we learn - through practice..practical application....that is the attitude to have, to make mistakes...without regrets.
