Accountability

by Chalsey

After some time of reflecting Understanding nothing you do on purpose is an accident or mistake Only regrets -Whatever you want to call it- but what you do on purpose is not a mistake I could explain all day I have complained in past days But I'm the only one I can ultimately blame I still made the choice Too late to cry and complain But every time I notice That I regret it And try to convince myself I didn't mean to do it And that life's always unfair

Notes

I have always been a hypocrite to be truthful, but everyone has, that is the good thing about learning from your regrets and learning from our history/ancestors/other people's choices. If we never learn from our regrets and try to get the younger generations to understand that and change we will never get better as a species. All I keep seeing is that we're copying so many of the wrong things. I can see it's effecting everything. I'm not claiming to be a human making perfect choices, but dang. Sometimes the choices we make make our lives come off unfairly.

I'm just simply getting a better understanding of choices.
