Mistakes

Mistakes...are life's treasures
He held me and always made everything right
He helped me find the gift of life

Then one day i lost my love
and since that day my life's been tough

For everyday i wake and see
This soul that was once a part of me

For he was nothing but nice to me
He showed me love, i could never see

I miss his hugs, his smile, his touch
i miss all that but i know this much

His family, they hated every part of me
yet again i was blind, for i could not see

That they had only been pretending on this very date
for inside all they felt were emotions of hate

I cant believe i was ever so dumb
to think they liked me, i mean i hardly knew them

But every day this i thought
that i would fight until all was fought

For my life was whole for all i knew
I wanted to spend my whole life with you

Yet now your gone...and no hates put in
So you can go and find someone who will fit in

with the family who so dearly loves you
just like friends you must listen, their true

for even though...your in a happier time
the happiness costs me my life.

but thats the chance I'm willing to take.
for as long as your heart is in the right place

i sit alone and wonder why
yet everytime i solemnly cry

for you are not there to wipe my tears
and now I'm lost and alone in my biggest fears.

Mistakes are the building blocks to all of success
Some cost you your life, and some cost less

For mistakes are life's treasures they are meant to be found
for they are the substances picking you up off the ground

"you cannot stay behind. you must pick up and move on. no matter how much it hurts."
