The Second Roundabout
No dilemma this time
Age and maturity
On my side
Yes, feelings I have
And these, I don’t want to hide
More than forty years
Of selflessness
And the result
My life, a complete mess
The hesitation
Of the first roundabout
Still haunts me loud
Have nearly fulfilled my duties
So now, is it a sin?
To please
Your own self
Not with riches, not with pelf
But love unadulterated
Just as I very recently did
This time I’m clear
My vision
It won’t be able to cloud
The complexities
Of the second roundabout
