A Plain Sheet Of Paper

We all have a clean slate to start our lives with
Which we blot with our mistakes
Then take a peek into others’
As if to cheat in this life’s test.

Mine has too many strike through
Too many that it looks as if I am the most imperfect

But then when I see what did I actually cut
I don’t feel bad about it or sit and fret

Coz there was a time in my life
When the things I did were what I wanted to do
Some decisions were right so are overlooked
The ones that were wrong are equally mine and I say it with no regret.

I would rather have a blotted sheet of paper that speaks of my life
Than to have one as clean as the given slate
For at least I tried and failed than not try at all
I willed more than the weak-hearted, at least I dared.
