Beautiful Mistake

Rewritten.

Can mistakes be beautiful? 

I used to think this some time ago.

 

Then I met you, and you were 

my first ever mistake, in a beautiful sense...

 

I tried hard not to collide with you,

yet I fell head over heels ~ for you.

 

Walking step by step 

along your side.

 

Accidentally 

touching - your fingers.

 

Stepping 

over - your shoes.

 

Trying 

to grab - your hand.

 

Pretending 

- to fall.

 

All these mistakes... 

but in a beautiful sense.

 

The only mistake 

I never regret is to be ~ with you. 

 

Because you are, 

my one and only ~ Beautiful mistake ...

love the oxymoron...

and reminds me of sheryl crow...
"you're my favorite mistake"---

or Cam's "you're my mistake to make all night"

others might warn us, but even when they don't work out...mistakes are in our memory bank and most without regret.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Yes.. and most of us don't even hesitate to make these mistakes again and again

Awesomely written Yumna :)
All of us ...at some point of time commit that mistake...
Some regret it, some accept it, some ignore it and some just love this mistake

Again thanks for writing this beautiful poem :)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Yes, I agree! Thank you Ashish, for the nice review! I'm glad you liked it☺

How was it a mistake? Perhaps in the sense that you didn't look for this person - it was a chance encounter rather than planned... But not a mistake, surely!

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Hah well maybe 😉
