Try Once More Poem by Elle Barr

Shivering from the cold,
You’ve found yourself in the same place,
Over and over again,
Trapped in a maze.

Committing the same error,
Choosing the same mistakes,
You’ve looked yourself in the mirror,
Never removing your gaze.

Asked the same questions,
Felt the same pain,
Wondering when,
Will you ever learn.

Will you try once more,
The one you’ve done before,
Are you willing to feel the ache,
Or is it too much to take?

Will you just play safe,
Never take a risk,
Although it’s a great plan,
A lot is what you’ll miss.

Or will you just live,
Or give and love,
With no expectations,
Comes with no regrets.
