Soon

Before I rest I must confess, transgressions of each day
For my mold not perfect, and my way, not clear

I speak in affirmations. Making each task achieved; Complete.
Only then will I close my eyes. Certain they’ve served some need

A wanting hand holds nothing. Forgetful minds, regret
A beating heart, a day’s reminder. 
There’s still life,  that lies ahead.
