Just a Mistake

​Was I a mistake that was supposed to be made?​

An errer, that stays on the poems scribbled page?​

A smudge on the window that clouded your view?​

Was I in the end nothing to you?​

​

Was I a mistake in your life\'s theory?​

A bump to your roads comfort?​

An odd taste to your minds meal?​

Is that really how you feel?​

​

Was I a mistake when I made you smile?​

An unwanted presence when I held you tight?​

A stain on the rug, faded, covered over?​

Was I the reason your days felt slower?​

​

Was I a mistake to your heart\'s desire?​

An unwanted image in the mornings hour?​

An annoying pause to your motivation?​

Are you hurting from our separation?​

​

Was I a mistake before I left?​

An inconvenience to be putting up with?​

A rodent, that avoided all your traps?​

Was it ease to adapt?​

​

Was I a mistake that tears you apart?​

An itch that\'s hard to scratch?​

Are there any amends I can make?​

Or was I just a mistake?
