We've all done things we regret, and yet....do you really want a second chance?
I'm just some old guy,

the world has passed by.

Like so many others,

wishing;

I had another try.



But I know,

there's little more in store for me.

Because when I look back,

I see a lot more track behind me,

instead of ahead.



Yet,

I would bet,

I'm not the only one filled with regret.

For as I look around,

I see a lot more of us down here.

People who fear,

opportunity came and went.

That there whole life has been spent,

for nothing.

People,

who'd do anything for another chance,

except something.
