When you screw up,
When you make a mistake,
You know you're growing up,
When a long time it will take
To forgive and forget
And live without regret
Start over again.
End something bad
To begin something good.
End to begin.

This was inspired by a long string of mistakes that I had made in 7th grade that I couldn't take back, but I could write about.
