Wish I Could Go Back

Never use to like wearing glasses
Every since I was a child
Now I regret each momment
Wish I could take it back
It would help me
To change my
Unhappy
And sad
Life

If I could go back into time
I'll care more about my eyes
Visit the doctor often
Take better care of me
My vision is what
Should have meant
The world 
To me 
Pray

Lesson well taught and well learned
Make sure you take care of yourself
Before it is to late
Relieve yourself of pain
Enjoy your life
Live it healthy
You only
Have but
One




FOR A JOURNEY BACK INTO 
TIME CONTEST

Faleshia, you couldn't have changed your eyesight even by seeing a doctor. I am sure you took care of yourself ok. You have a dear spirit. That is what counts! Nice poem on your feelings, Faleshia. LUv, Andrea

Great poem to go back in time, Faleshia! I am wearing glasses since the age of 16. Nearly lost my left eye when I was a kid when falling onto a sharp stone. I could never wear contact lenses. Have a great time and I wish you best of luck in all contests!...Gert:)

Faleshia, I'm sorry to hear you're having problems with your eyesight. Taking care of health issues is one thing many people would do if they could "Journey Back into Time." I was moved by your plight and will surely pray for you. Thanks for your comments today. Love, Carolyn

The best of luck in the contest, Faleshia a nice reason to go back in time. I myself have bad vision, but mine is from all them tears that force-ively made me rub my eyes. How I wish to go back and see it was not worth the eye rub. Enjoyed your poem,..p.d.
