A single mistake can often take away a lot of things in our life, but it's never enough to shatter us completely!


A Single Mistake

That day I made a single mistake
And that is all that it takes
To make me relinquish the joy I found
To leave me littered on the ground

I always wished for heavenly stars
But all I got were hideous scars
This cruel fate marred my soul
And left me harrowed than a whole

I never willed a life this torn
Leaving me ravaged and forlorn
My wish for end won't come near
And I still feel the fear

All this ends when I say goodbye
But in the end, I seek a reply
“Do I create my own destiny,
Or will I be put out of misery?”
