Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Allow Your Mistakes to Help You

We all mess up
We’ve all done something wrong
And when we hurt someone
the pain digs in and stays for very long

We’ve all gone through it
It’s another part of life
But the choices you make next
can lead to even more strife

You can brush it off
act like it’s no big deal
but when you’re hurting inside
people will notice that your face isn’t real

Or you can take another path
you can allow your mistakes to help you
Help you heal and learn and grow
And in time, blossom into something brand new
