Mistakes (Poem by Mark Borne)

Ever wonder where you went wrong?
Sudden fear overpowers you,
Making you worry about what's next.
Guilt makes you stop and think,
About the casualties in this deadly game.
The way to take it back stands
Resolutely before your stricken face,
Another bomb ready to deploy.
But this bomb is for you,
The silent, "I was wrong" that
Turns your friends into fools,
For they believed the lie I thought I knew,
When they really saw the truth all along.
