Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Your Future Bright

Mistakes are inevitable
You can’t avoid or escape them
They are the foundation of your growth
You are a flower, they are your stem

But some people will hold them against you
Cling to them, grip tightly, fixate
All they see is that one action
To them, you will always be that mistake

But one mistake does not define you
That isn’t who you are
You’ve changed so much since then
You’ve come so very far

It may be hard, but I hope you know
That the past is not a cage to trap you inside
but a pedestal on which to stand
as you reach for your future bright
