I did some things That cannot be fixed. I made some mistakes That cannot be taped. How do I lift up the burden Of guilt from my chest? How do I assure myself That I'll be forgiven?
Regret is eating me up From the inside. I wish to go back In the past and rectify Everything that I did. Dear self, stop beating me!

A/N:
As we grow older, we regret most of the decisions that our younger self made, negating the fact that we did THE BEST that we could have done in that very moment.
Certain mistakes are meant to made in order to learn the lessons that life has to offer. We must learn to forgive ourselves as we grow to ease the burden of our past self. Without those steps, we wouldn't be where we are today.
Forgiveness to self is one of the highest levels of self-love. So please, forgive your younger self and give them a pat on the back for not giving up!
Sending lots of hugs <3 (to you and your younger self)
