DO-OVERS

by Alexis Anderson   May 18, 2013


If given a chance would
you re-do your whole life
or only bits and pieces?
would you take back things
you said that hurt ones you
love most.?
Would you chose to re-do only
the wrongs you did.?
Or would you do it all over
again just as you did the first time.?
For me these questions are very easily
answered i would not change a thing yes
there are many things i wish i would not
have done things i wish i would have done
but all those choices i made have brought
me here today whose to say if i had
done a single thing different id be here today.?

    I would never re-do, I would prove a change instead, I like the poem is point over the edge in many ways

    I like the content and the conversational manner in which the poem is written. I was a bit thrown off by the punctuation and think that spacing could add gravitas to some of your lines, showing better the transition from questioning to declaration. Personally, I live with regret almost every day. I hope to accept myself as you seem to do here.
