Making Amends

It was a free ride down town Full of obstructions And multiple checkpoints My pulchritude casts a spell On entire human existence As motley petals on insects Many couldn't resist A glimpse at me I am a creation of the earth I wish to exclusively Spell out rules for humanity But I can't always have my way Growing affection and inattentively, Let my guard down. Nature exploited the innocent me I felt stupid and confused But neither alone nor helpless Uncertain of hopes For a brighter future But it's time to make peace With inner self and accept reality The chance to right all wrongs And anew personality Give me time and space To get back to myself. For I am a jewel in others' lives.
