With reckless abandon,
I threw away my most important things
Without a thought.
Now, with a clearer head,
I can no longer function as I need;
I'm lesser now.
But, since time flows onward,
I cannot return to a greener past;
They can't come back.
I shoulder my failure.
I'll endure, and hopefully with hard work,
I will get through.
