Lessons Learned

Lessons Learned

written by: Not All Who Wander Are Lost

 

The words that once would cut me
Their sharp edges tear my world apart
Have lost their power
Their blade is dulled
What could once have devastated
Now scarcely stings
The gift of time has lifted me
Healed me
Left only scars to remind me
Of lessons learned
The hard way
Mistakes I will never make again
My loss is gain
So for my pain
I thank you.
It has made me who I am
