Million Poem by Justin Fitzpatrick

You can read a million books
Learn a millions lines
Close your eyes and wonder
And forget it all a million times

You can eat a millions foods
Drink a million wines
And still find yourself unsatisfied
With your taste still undefined

You can hope a millions times
And dream a million sheep
You can laugh as though it doesn’t bother you
Even if a million nights you weep

You can sing a million notes
And practice a million ways
And all it takes is one rejection
To have you stop after just one day

You can have a million lovers
Reach for a million hearts
You can hold your breath and wonder
And yet suffocate before it ever starts

You can have a million lifetimes
A million chances to succeeded
And yet if you never try just once
You may as well have infinity
