Again i saw the picture
Of past that remind me a smile
That miles me away from that time now
Again i am standing there
Wasting time to wish
Another chance if i would have
I would not ask for another
Never ending for a childish wish
Just if we could reverse our steps
To back where we have started
Before the road divided
I'll walk with you
Not to the another way
If i knew all from beginning
Where will my heart travel now
I would decide it to reach somewhere
Anywhere but no regret to haunt me
Because the story have changed now
Whenever the road divided
I was lost in the jungle
Time will never turn back
Just move on, have to go on
But childish wish never end
Maybe need a thousand years
Accepting what i could not change
Again i wasting time
Waiting for the sun to come
Make me ignored the night
I forget everything i have
Just lost in a dreaming wish
A wish for something I'll never had
The flame lighting on my face
I burned the picture with that forgotten smile
Let it be gone with the past
And I shall replace and framed the new ones
Framing a mirror and a blank picture
To reflect my present and remind the future
Because i don't have much time to regret
For something i will never had
Something i never had
Now I'm avoiding for another time
From losing the moment i am having now
And wishing it return me in years later
Enough with feeling that came haunted
Ghost of my past moment
Because of this wish
The second chances
My childish wish
My final chance is now
For something i will have
My dear soul
In unwritten journey
New moment to go
We all carry regrets from the past, but those regrets are coupled with learning which helps us to move forward and make wiser choices in the future. An interesting write Soul, very thought-provoking.
For the wise yesterdays the past, todays for living and tomorrows full of adventure and maybe surprises good or bad. Regrets are unnecessary second chances always deserved. 0/10 BB
The second chance, when actually delivered, also leads to a feeling that takes us back to a 'childish' state...This is a wonderful, insightful verse, Soul!
Never ending for a childish wish still child remembers the past and emotion comes through smile from far mile with picture that amazes mind. Time never turns back but this moves ahead and child grows. In unwritten journey new moment has to go. We have to feel this journey of life. The second chances come as childish wish. Brilliantly penned excellent poem is shared here.10
I can relate to this poem so well. The past can pull us back so far that the present and future doesn't exist for us as we dwell on our regrets and mistakes. But the present is for living and to be happy where we are now, to enjoy the beauty of nature, the beat of music, a smile from a stranger, a new challenge and to embrace a new Dawn! Beautiful and heartfelt write!
