The Journey

It started with booking the tickets,

And all I can remember now is how well in advance I should have done it.

It started with all the shopping,

And all I can remember now is how irritated I was in the last bit.

It started with all the packing,

And all I remember now is how more efficiently I could have done it.

It all started with my parents nagging,

And all I can remember now is that I should have listened to it.

It all started with how efficient I was in time management,

And all I can remember now is I could have missed my flight in the second’s split.

Now, that I have boarded my flight, All I can remember is what I should have done,

All that I did not do, all that I repent for now, all my mistakes that cannot be undone,

But the moment has passed when I should have acted,

And all I can do now is only remember, how ludicrously I reacted.

All I can do now is just remember, how lessons are learned only when mistakes are made.
