It was a long time ago
Yesterday.
Now it's too late to live.
Now I know.
It was a big mistake
There is no future from the past
It was a big mistake and there is no escape
A big mistake of rage and regret, of incomplete tasks and a failed test
The past prevents my future like a shadow you can never shake
It's a past lost in the present like an ephemeral solace you long to taste
Oh how I long for the dusk so that may but for a little while...
Lose that shadow and forget my mistake
Driven by lust where they say the grass is always greener
Out of green comes blue
It was a big mistake.
A life without you
-Lars Hindsley
Inspired by an event related to my life, but not by my own mistake. Observing someone else make a life changing big mistake. They made decisions based on desire without really knowing how their decision would destroy any future they had. In fact that big mistake destroyed other lives. It was a mistake so profound that nothing could alter the future for the better. I could see that in the end, the mightiest of regrets is the one where they realized all they indeed had before, and had lost forever.
