For A Moment In Time Poem by Brian Jefferson

For just a moment in time
I feel as if I'm blind
Not seeing what the future holds
But watching another door close
With that door shutting in my face
I wish my life could be replaced
As a flower is in a vase
I'm trying to return to my home base
But I'm stuck in this dreaded place
Looking at my past
Wishing I could break it as easily as glass
I want to learn to live with regrets
But is seems to cause too much stress
Instead of the happiness I pursue
Which I feel is overdue
Because everything in this world seems untrue
