Second Chances

Missing image
This morning thoughts swirling
      round and round,
Realizing something may be lost
      before it is found.
Chances not taken, not knowing
      if they were real,
Now deep inside a sadness a
      heart strongly feels.
Wondering if a second chance 
      will open to,
To again come, then knowing
        what one must do.

Author notes

Some time ago there was to me what seemed like a lady was interested in me. Not knowing for sure and being fearful did not act upon the appearance. Now there seems there may be a second chance, another opportunity.

      HELLO CYNTHIA

      Thanks ever so much for coming by and reading As of this moment it does not look like she is willing to forget, of what I am not sure. I really don't know her and did not act on her advances for reasons which I consider good ones. At least though she does not treat me badly .

    Beautifully penned....sometimes you have to just step forward, one step at a time.
    So what if you're not sure...the worst that can happen is that you may feel embarrassed, if you've read the signals wrong....

    BUT opportunity of friendship and/or romance may await you. So don't let it slip by.

    GO FOR IT

    Your poem is wonderful. It is one with which many can relate. We don't always get a second chance, so if you think you have, go for it or you may never know. Very good write, and it seems to have come from a heart that is kind and somewhat cautious. I like your style and the fact that it flows right from your heart. Keep up the good work my fellow poet.

    there are so many times we all have a second chance for various things ... i say go for it!! I think it is sometimes worse to have the regret of not trying.

      Thank you ever so much for coming by and reading I do feel there is a reason that we still see one another and do not turn away. But honest second chance I am not sure of.

    A beautiful poem and one which speaks so well of the thoughts that you have going on. A second chance is always an opportunity to give yourself a new lease of life with different direction. I really hope this turns out for you and it may do as when chances come by twice, they normally mean something. Beautiful setout write with lovely flow.

      HELLO CONDOR

      Thank you ever so much for coming by and reading I was thinking along the same lines that if a second chance is indeed here for me that maybe God is giving me a sign that maybe I should not turn away again and give it a chance.

    Today must be a day for thinking. I felt the same way. If some of us were given a second chance, would we take it. Very deep and thought provoking.

      HELLO ANGELBELLEROSE

      Thank you ever so much for coming by and reading my thoughts in this. Before came upon me as a surprise and now almost a year later I see the one almost weekly as they work in a store I must frequent. Today I asked her to help me find something and she did without hesitation and as she did once again impressions were felt. One cannot be sure about senses and again I have this uncertain fear about myself and my reasons for passing them by before.

        I know my kind soul sometimes we want to hide for the pain in the outside world I know what it is like for others to not be kind when alll you are is kind to all.. it doesn't make sense to me but then if it did i would be like them .. if i understood.. Hugs to you always and thank you for all your kindness..
        I am so glad you might have a second chance hugs always♥♥

    Picture pefect words and a deep reflection on life. Perhaps a walk on the tracks to gain some peace of mind. Loved the rhyme poet.

      HELLO BOB

      Thank you ever so much for coming by and reading my second thoughts here. I saw this person today and asked them to help find something as they work in a store I frequent weekly. I passed for a couple of reasons but the dwelling on why I did come back to me often and make me think on it again.
