Learning for Myself


If I could change anything

The thing I’d want to do

Is go back in time

And change a few things I did.

 

The time I said something stupid,

The time I didn’t say anything at all,

The time I said something and wished I had said something else,

I time I said something and wished I could take is back.

 

I'd also change some actions that I regret.

Like what I studied at school.

The thing I didn’t completely enjoy

 to the thing that I now know I do.

 

But that’s not how we learn now is it?

If we do right all the time.

Everyone makes mistakes

It’s how we learn by and by.

 

So the thing I would want to change

Would be to tell myself that it’s okay,

This is how things are meant to be.

Just be Happy.
