Pandora's Box

Topic: oops



Pandora's Box

Can you see a lil deeper, under the crust of a silt?
I hope there are people left with this special skill

Splinters of life never go off
I wear them proudly, they're a sort of
Armour that keeps wrapping me inside

It's not a protection, neither hard shield
It's my record, an imprint that sealed
An espalier of strides I have behind

I've walked alot and in memoriam of that
Is dust on my shoes, sand on my hat
I won't rub away what I want to stay

They can't say I'm dirty
I'm full of memories

If you're talking about mistakes...(are you?) they are how we learn as we walk life's dusty road. How else will we learn....(scratching head?) Well done by the way.

no, it wasn't about mistakes at all, rather about the opposite thing ;)
