Mindless Decade

Most of the time he would notice

Great things are temporary

The best parts of life are thrown to the side

Unappreciated as he continues to chase

-

Regrets come by quick, realizations come by slowly

Remembering decisions that ruined things;

Entirely missing the whole point of reflecting

He rants for next few hours, days and months

-

Accomplishments he finished, but not perfected

The thirst for validation that doomed his mental state

For ten years, he had set eyes into puddles

Ignoring the ripples that showed growth over the years
