POETRY; A NEW LIFE

The fire burning within my heart

Causing me to desire a new start,

Contemplating on all the years that passed

Time wasted and opportunities that never last,

Many opportunities knocked on my door,

I made choices, unclear and poor.

It is funny how decisions of the past

Can linger in your life and last,

Foolish and emotional decisions

Made with my heart, not thinking of my missions.

I should have used my head

But used my heart instead

Empathizing with those who now show me no love

Giving and sharing at the time, just trying to prove,

What? I don't know

Spending time and caring in times high and low

Hoping to reap that kindness that I sow.

I am glad that during all this, What is the fact?

My integrity has remained intact.

Maybe, just maybe one day

I will live to say

" I did make the right  choices after all ,

I will rise above all this, I cannot fall"
