My Mistakes

By all means

Let me be.

 

Can I have one day… one night

Without bashing?

On my mistakes… my mistakes

Oh god, my mistakes.

It’s difficult being happy

With constant argument

Over the past.

 

I know what happened,

I don’t need a daily reminder.

Can we be happy again?

Can we be at peace again?

 

My mistakes… my mistakes

Oh god, my mistakes.

The cause of frustration,

Shed tears, and anger.

 

My mistakes… my mistakes

Oh god, my mistakes.

Let’s move on from my mistakes

It’s difficult to be happy

With constant argument

Over the past.

Can we be happy again?

Can we be at peace again?

3rd of 12 in my series of relationship frustrations. Just kind of what was on my mind at the time.
