grateful for regrets

Take me home
Even if we have to walk
Home is where my heart is
Home is wherever you are
I have so many regrets
But nobody I love
None of them are regrets
I regret not finding my true love sooner
I regret not being able to stand up for me
And I regret not loving myself
Just a few
Not spending more time with loved ones
I regret not being able to find myself
Knowing who I am
What I'm supposed to do
I regret overthinking
Getting overwhelmed so easily
I regret not showing more love
I regret all of the damage I've ever caused
Burned bridges I never meant to
Breaking my own heart
But there's so much I'm grateful for
Those who love me for whoever I am
Those who stayed no matter what
I've cried so many tears
But some of my regrets
Are what I'm grateful for
Every heartbreak
Every lesson I've learned
Things happen for a reason
And I'm grateful for so much
Everything has happened
Nothing hasn't been meant to be
We may not know the real reason
But that's really okay
I've almost drowned myself
I've judged myself
And even others
But not anymore
Everyone is who they're meant to be right now
We all are
Everyone is growing
Everyone is learning
Looking for our place in the world
My green eyes see imperfect perfection
My mind knows what is truly meant to be will be
Even if that's not what's meant to be right now
We've grown from mistakes
But what if they weren't really mistakes?
What if what happened was supposed to?
Like it has always meant to be
Imperfections make us unique
And it shows who really loves us despite them
We judge ourselves
We've judged others
But everything we judge everyone on…
It might make us look at everything…
And love those around us more and more
Maybe if we stop judging…
What is meant to be will be
And what has happened won't be a regret anymore
We will find love for everyone
And finally love ourselves
