If I had
learned
what I was never taught
If I had
discovered my mistakes
before I made them
If I knew
when to keep my mouth, shut
erring with silence instead of words
If I kept my
face sans expression.
instead of showing my mind
… But, I did not
so now I am, regretful
If only, Sometimes
Ronda R. Scott-Marak
