Mocked I stand...

 I used to laugh at them.
The ones that said it was true.
I used to crib at them,
The ones who forgot others.
I used to taunt them,
when they said it was impossible without it.
I used to criticize them,
saying all they ever did was waste time.
I used to hurt them,
by making them cringe for mentioning it to me.
I used to belittle them,
when they showed it in front of me.
Suffice to say sometimes it felt so true,
that I tried to change my mind.
Sometimes it was so fake,
that I knew I was right.
I kept having the same stance for eons,
Everyone would tell me I was a fool,
And I believed they were wrong.
What it was or is I don't know,
All I can say is when you have it too good
Its like seventh heaven.
All I can say when it becomes bad,
Its like groundhog day.
Confusion confounded have I become,
like a clown without the circus.
I stand corrected as I say,
Detractors you were right and
I was wrong..
Mocked  I stand 
In this menagerie called life.
I never will understand it fully,
All I know is I have to move on
Without any regrets.
