Possibilities That Have Passed Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Watching life while sitting on edges of it, seeing
possibilities that have passed me by because of my
own negligence at times.

Looking back through the past, wanting to retrace
steps and turn things around, yet knowing that it
is an impossibility no matter how much I wish that
things could be different.

Not wanting to look too closely into the future,
taking care that each step will be meaningful and
having a purpose to be fulfilled for all mankind.
