Mistakes made, a lesson learned through pain. Pain, unslightly, a scar across my chest, unwilling to listen then to the voice which screamed throughout my mind, echoing out through my body, vibrating through every cell as it reached the very edges of my soul, radiating out as I bellow my hatred for the sun, moon and sky for all to hear; I recall those days, familiar to me now as they had been then. A lesson learned as I walked through fire, enduring yet feeling the burns upon my soles, the sizzling of my skin, the cuts as blood is drawn, settling finally into puddles upon the ground, soaking deeply into the earth. A mistake made long ago, floating above pain then sinking lower and lower, pulled further inward as I struggle to break free from its deadly grip; I am sinking beneath the quicksand of my heart, the grief I carried with me threatening to pull me down, to incase me in tar, to keep me trapped in an endless echo forever and always. I will not repeat yesterday, I will live forever, I will not repeat all I have struggled through to be here, I will live anew, fight for what is right and not rely on the impulsive, the "feels good right now, will be good forever" thought process, for it never remains, the fleeting feeling of paradise for all time until it vanishes, as though it were never there at all.
I will not make another mistake, nor suffer through a lesson already learned.
