Mistake

Mistake

A mistake has happened
I keep it around to punish myself
But I ought to let it go

If truly I was in prison,
Then the pay for the crime is life
I see no escape in sight
Do I want one?  

I hold the lock and the key
I made the prison
Brick by brick
Lovingly designed

So foolish of me to commit to a crime
That has long faded from the world view
I made several mistakes.  
For sure I should let them go.
