A Simple Reflection

At the age I'm at now I often reflect

What happened to cause such loss of respect

Was it worth all the changes I made in my life

Or cause more turmoil, ladled with strife

Did I pursue unjustly to cover an act

Of foolish feelings or a proven fact

Do my misgivings allow me the luxury of hope

For being so stupid, and idiot or dope

Can feelings be harnessed to repair these unhappy deeds

Or the changes permanent and fill my new needs

Sometimes I see hurt that is worse than my own

And I wonder about life and the things I've been shown

Do we have more than one person hidden within

One for the good things and one for the sin

Time makes it's atonement from deep in my heart

Hoping that God intervenes and grants a new start
