Rewriting Memory
Trust…I wish I hadn’t broken trust so many times
But I was egotistical and foolish too
I mixed the boundaries between wrong and right
With a skewed view of integrity and virtue
But the thing about distorted perception
Is that in a self-centered mind reality bends
There is no real sense of true north or direction
A broken moral compass with a shattered lens
And when it exploded into a million pieces
The most delicate place affected was the soul
Followed by disappointment and utter heartbreak
Knowing so many things were within my control
Sometimes I wish I had an undo button
Put things in reverse so I would’ve been alert
But it’s the never-ending lesson in life
I can’t erase the past for those I loved but hurt
