No Regrets

I didn’t know how beautiful the mountains were
On whose feet I spend the night
Only now–looking from afar
Can I see their height
Can I see their beauty

That’s life so often
We are too close
To see the bigger picture

Only visible from a distance

So be gentle with yourself
Your decisions can only be based
On what you know at the time
That small piece you can see
Right there
Right then

No regrets!
Only the way forward
Your life is now
Not then

Right a wrong

What if you can’t right a wrong?

What if you can’t cry wolf?
What if you cannot pretend?
Anymore

Because
You know
Now

You placed yourself into a corner
You are stuck
And the only way out
Is truth
