A huge regret of my Youth
As I sit and reflect
on my life thus far,
there are many regrets
but my greatest one
is probably the fact that
I was afraid of everything -
that I let opportunities
to achieve great feats
pass me by.
This was my life attending
school, when I was younger.
More friends I could have
made, more things I could
said and done...
I could have made my
life more rich in that sense.
But since I put my foot
down, realizing I had to
make it stop, I have had
more success than I ever
would have had, if I had
continued down that path.
Given a pen and if I had the
power over this: my life, including my past, I would
erase it completely from my
history like it never even
happened and I would live different as a young child
rather than now
deciding to change only
after becoming an adult
instead.
