The Maze of Mistakes



Mistakes I’ve made
every path I see tracks.
The strain of pressure made it hard to relax.


Four years apart of me
Four years under me
Four years ahead
 A dream this big
Patience was my only fig.
Freedom!. I can’t wait.


High school
School and life
Ambition
Integrity
Hard work, and much to learn.
A maze you enter being left in the center of right or wrong, trials and or broken friendships.


While emotions ran free
You’ve kept yourself neat.
Exhausted you see time never slows in a blink of an eye. Move on, look ahead from hopeless struggles of dead ends at every corner.


A little patience in any lesson
Only then there’s an exit.
No matter how long….


Be proud!, you’ve come this far.
Walls of plenty tumble down in this maze you call home, you continue to grow as you build your own home.


I believe in you in all your foot steps,
Let these words mean nothing less when you hear them.


Our Maze’s of mistakes gave us the will to face anything.
(If only you stand and try again!).

About this poem

Inspirational poem. This poem was created to inspire teens going through a hard time in high school, but I would like this poem to be related to life as well because after those four years of high school then life is knocking at the door. I wanted to be a merging of high school and the concept of life. Never give up, this poem applies to everyone no matter the age.
