Looking back at my life, <br />I think I just might go insane, <br />I think about how many times I have had the choice to make the right decisions and haven’t, <br />How many times I have said something when I could have kept quiet, <br />How many times I could have made someone’s day instead of looked away, <br /> <br />Looking back at my life, <br />I think about how many times I’ve said something that has made someone’s confidence boost, <br />I look back at how many times I have felt nothing but the need to have my way, <br />I think back on how many times I have given the chance to change a life in a positive way and didn’t, <br />How many times I have had the chance to tell someone that it’s ok and haven’t, <br /> <br />Looking back at my life, <br />I see pain, <br />I see little happiness, <br />Some jealousy, <br />But what I see most is regretful ness, <br /> <br /> Looking back at my life, <br />I don’t like what I see, <br />So I try to make my past wrongs right, <br />But once it’s done it’s done, <br />So I have evolved into someone I had always dreamt of being but I just needed a little acknowledgement of my past mistakes and how I could change them if it came up again, <br />And I have.<br /><br />Kathryn Miller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/looking-at-my-life/
