small mistakes

small mistakes
there are no re-takes
no do-overs
no four-leave-clovers

no going back
to do agin'
no way to -re-track
Today is where i begin

my small mistakes
like snow flakes
fall from the sky
and though i try
they melt
each mistake is felt

one small mistake
like a tear drop
from my eye
makes me stop
and ponder "why?"

"why?"
are there no re-takes
for my small mistakes
and then i cry
