       MISTAKES
  By ... Steve Lucky

Mistakes are made.
Wrong deeds are done.
Good deeds are ended
Before they have begun.
Closing my eyes
I pretend not to see
And compound my errors
With false secrecy.
Deep in my heart
I know I am to blame,
But I still lack the courage
To face up to my shame.
Trembling with fear
I avoid public view.
Time to face my mistakes.
That is what I must do.
Mistakes are quite common.
It is a well know fact.
No matter what surrounds me,
I must get back on track.
