My Own Way

The One Who Sees

I do things that I regret sometimes

but that doesn't make it go away.

What's the point in trying to fix it

if it's just going to stay the same?

You say I must learn from this

by "punish and embrace",

but that doesn't work anymore

because I've lost track of my mistakes.

I'm tired of following,

it's just not my thing.

So let me remember it my way,

by letting me go

and thinking on my own,

I promise you,

it won't stay the same~

    yup, I think you wonderfully captured
    that threshold - moment
    most of us, go through
    far - too late
    when we realise, that life
    is mostly, all about what we do
    and how we react/recover;
    what's done to us
    or our limiting, circumstances
    are just the outlines, we
    get to colour
    the important details
    and curate our lives, as best
    we can
    and realising, theirs comfort
    in that
    means letting go of the surreal
    and finding acceptance
    in our gifted, everyday breath of real..
    (thanks for sharing)
