Camille Beck Poet I do not know?

Chance

I did what I'd been so relieved to put behind me.
I wished my life was over
So I wouldn't have to look at what I messed up.

But they say you work miracles
For the broken and the sweating.

Today I destroyed everything I had.
Today I gave up.
Today I screwed every chance I had.
I couldn't believe it.

But they say you work miracles
And that you brought someone back from the grave.

I heard about the water and the wine.
They say you can change anything

They even say you work miracles
That you are a celebration
You don't have to be anything
Anyone wants to see
To come to.

I lost.
I didn't learn; I am so afraid.
You are probably sick of me, 
I definitely am.
I shouldn't have a second chance
I don't deserve grace
But they say you work miracles.
