Is there an error in life you made that you deeply regret? Do you wonder if there is something you can do to make it right?

 

You know you have to give it a try. You sit gazing off into space thinking about . . .

 

 

The Mistake I Made

A Double Triolet

 

I had no idea what would work, but I needed to try.

She was the love of my life and I had to correct the mistake I made.

I struggled to piece the puzzle together, but failing, I began to cry.

I had no idea what would work, but I needed to try.

I screamed out for help, but there was no reply.

I bowed my head in shame, for I left when I should’ve stayed.

I had no idea what would work, but I needed to try.

She was the love of my life and I had to correct the mistake I made.

 

My world was in shambles and there seemed to be nothing I could do.

She gave me a chance to repent for my sins, but I flunked the test.

I turned my back and walked away, as I didn’t have a clue.

My world was in shambles and there seemed to be nothing I could do.

I prayed for a second chance to find a possible breakthrough.

But no matter what action I chose to take, she wasn’t impressed.

My world was in shambles and there seemed to be nothing I could do.

She gave me a chance to repent for my sins, but I flunked the test.
