‘Twas a mistake
In my youth
To think there were limits to what I could do
My head aches
Knowing the truth
I might’ve done anything I’d put my mind to
In recompense
For the lost years
I’m busy as ever— positively
Life has commenced
Without the fears
I am resourceful effective and free

This really rings true for me – thankfully I have found myself!
I suppose it’s part of growing up for a lot of people. The lucky ones have confidence early on.
It was cool reading this after I wrote my post for this prompt because our first lines were similar (yet very different), and we both ran opposite directions with it.
Yes, very similar start to our posts! Great minds…
That’s very true! Hindsight is a terrible thing…..
