Return As I Again

Return as I again,
With daring striking in my chest,
Another circuit open chain,
Then stop to rest,
Procrastinate, a cover for refrain. 

Watching time pass again,
I wonder would it be somehow,
My season comes to preordain,
The time is now,
Shoot flaming straight, destroy excuses lame.

But fate relieves again,
The urgency that I would feel,
For courage in my heart to fain,
To make it real,
What kind of chance, could I then ascertain?

It is good to make new beginning. Interestingly enough your previous poem's title was, "Conceive", now, "return as I". Yes, it is always, me, but a newer me, a me that has learned things and grow from the past experiences and is embarking on a path to yet grounds higher and it is up to me how I'm going to fill in the blanks between day 1 and when its time ends. Thought provoking as usual David and well written.
