Change

In life
you're given choices and chances
and what you decide
determines your fate.

The biggest mistake I made was
finally giving you a chance,
not once
but several times.

I kept thinking your actions
were due to hurt and retribution
but somehow maybe deep down inside
you did truly care.

Each and every time
you continued to disappoint me.
So now, here I am
a mess

And all I want today is
for you to change,
even though I have discerned
that that's impossible

and all I can hope for
now
is for me, myself
to change...
