Past Mistakes:

by Scott Cole   Feb 5, 2015


Let's pause for a second
And rewind some time,
Play back the memories
Etched in our mind.

Fast forward to the present
What never was gone,
And remember the outcome
Of all we did wrong.

When life gets confussing
Not sure what to do,
Think of your past failures
And all you went through.

Search for the answers
Among all your mistakes,
Reflecting only on the ones
That brought forth the aches.

Theres no use to dwell
Nor no reason to weep,
If it taught you a lesson
Then just don't repeat.

Dare not to walk again
Those paths that did you in,
Learn from your misfortunes
By remembering what you did.

When your worries are settled
Your confussion is clear,
Then its time to move forward
When the answer appears.

Think not of your footsteps
But more of the journey,
Cause it's success not direction
That makes us feel worthy.
