Second Chances

on July 11th, 2009 by Rae

I’ve been asked to think about my future

And just where I would like my life to go

To imagine what I want and who I want

But I have yet to realize the desire to know

What questions should I be asking myself

And then how much detail am I to reveal

About what I am supposed to think about

And do I include things that I wish to feel

I could think about all the people I have met

And then about the ones I have yet to meet

Or should I look at all the mistakes I’ve made

To decide which ones I don’t want to repeat

Should I be turning all my thoughts towards

Ways I’d like to be loved and how I’d love

And other things that come in a relationship

Things that have so far been undreamed of

Or maybe I could start with familiar things

The things I’ve done that I can do with ease

There are the things I think I’d be good at

Or ones that I know have brought me peace

Should I think about my lack of knowledge

And the things that I’d still like to ascertain

There are the places in the world I want to see

Or maybe the things that I’d like to do again

Perhaps it would make the task a bit easier

If I started with the things that I don’t want

Or maybe the things that aren’t working now

Either way this task just continues to taunt

I am not sure what to choose this time around

Or even how to make much needed advances

I am wondering what opportunities still exist

Or if I’ve already wasted all my second chances
