Me

A child isn’t allowed to make mistakes 

“Of course they are, they are only

Children.”

What if she was not a child anymore?

“Then she can make mistakes, 

We are only human”

What if she doesn’t see herself

As human, as child

“Then what is she?”

Perfect

Or is that another mirage?

For she still makes 

Mistakes 

Missteps 

Misdoings

Missings

Missing, the choice

To make an error

The one a child, makes

The one a human, makes

No choice

Only orders, 

That control too much

And give too little 

Be smarter next time

Be quicker next time

Be better

Next time

For her, 

There is no next.

Only this and this chance

Not to mess up
