Reflections

Reflections

A Poem by schnickythep

It always seems so stupid
The way we used to be
Looking back we see mistakes 
All our lost possibilities
But the present's still a struggle
And we find it hard just to get by
I'm sure that when we look back
There will be disappointed sighs

But all that really matters
Is that we learn from our mistakes
At least that's what we're told
Just to soothe away the aches
But as history repeats
In a voice that sounds so soft
There is a voice in my head
"Are you really better off?"

Second guessing is one of the worst feelings, in my opinion. Reflections are, hard to look back upon and that's when the second guessing happens the worst because it's already happened and you can't change it. Great job.
