    Mistakes

    Looking back in my life
    I have made my fair share of mistakes
    I regret most of them

    Being talked about constantly
    Hearing my name leave everyone’s mouth
    Insecure about who I really am
    I’m in a place that anyone and everyone dreads
    Its called high school

    Dealing with the pain and stress
    Carefully I walk the halls
    Feeling their eyes burn holes through my body
    Knowing every move I make
    Is being watched, judged

    They are just waiting for my destruction
    Another mistake
    So they can have a beautiful story
    About my disaster

    Finally some light is shed on my day
    Learning from my mistakes
    Changing into a person I don’t regret
    Leaving the dreaded high school place
    And walking on my own without judgment

    Looking at life in retrospect. You have vividly imagined the ordeal of a student. It is heartening to read the last few lines ' a changed person'. I loved it. Thanks.
