Gift of Mistakes by Aminat Ashaye

How I wish the clock could turn back,
How I wish I could return to my childhood.

How I wish my mistakes had never been made,
How I wish I hadn’t followed the wrong steps.

How I wish all these mistakes hadn’t happened,
How I wish everything were just a dream.

But it wasn’t a dream; I’ve learned my lessons.
I forget my mistakes but recall the pain.

Mistakes taught me valuable life lessons
And helped me grow through trials and strain.

I won’t repeat the same mistakes again,
And I will rise stronger, with wisdom gained.

Mistakes are stepping stones to learning;
Making mistakes is not life’s ending.

Refusing to amend is the real mistake;
Stand firm; don’t let others make you shake.

You’re a failure only if you see yourself as one.
True growth and wisdom come from humility.

Believe in yourself; have faith and might.
Do your best today; shine with all your light.

Thinking negatively cultivates fear,
But conviction yields positive outcomes clear.
