It’s a game called life
With treasures lost
Loves, friends, jobs, opportunities
Ne’er to come again.
What went astray?
Perhaps to have played a piece differently
Just one small maneuver
Might have brought another outcome.
But we cannot make those changes
Yesterday’s chance gone..
So we breathe deeply and jump ahead
Preparing for more of the game.
