I spent the day in retrospect
thinking on things I’d done
and on things for which i regret
there are times in my life I’d thought were
so bad
but looking back now
I’ve been blessed to have had
the chance to experience the pains and regrets.
for in the pain and regrets
I’ve met beautiful people; seen beautiful things
the chance to dance that dance
and to live my dreams
I’ve grown
I have loved and I’ve lost
I have loved and I’ve lost
now I love again
But this love is different……
it’s because of the past…
because of the pain…..
I made a promise to God things would not be the same
I love this man with all my heart….
he helps me live my dreams
His bright brown eyes
his quiet stance
in retrospect……..
This is the dance.
