Disappointment stings through shame,
As remorse by immorality burns the conscience.
Remembering errors tears the soul,
Punishing yourself by visions of past sins.
Dismay from history doesn’t have to scar,
Even if previous wrongdoing can’t be repaired.
Being remorseful not for erasing guilt,
But for the sole purpose of selfless virtue.
Learning from historic moments,
Preventing mistakes from repeating.
Once wickedness is replaced by righteous ways,
Fulfillment will be built on virtuousness.
