Best Second Chance Poems

As the never world awaits me, 
The lord darkness, his cloak now draped.
Haunting images that appear in dreams,
Invade the subconscious, till again I wake 

Complative thoughts well before the dawn,
I walk the morning shore,
How many have stood on these same sands,
Reflecting the echoes of those...

Here we are again in the center of the desert
Don't know how we came to know a second chance
drowning in a drought of inspiration
thirsty still we both know that we can dance

timid and a tiny bit off of balance
my hands are shaking, heart is heavy...

God Gave You a Second Chance
 Not ready to leave this world with unfinished business determining the souls color; you’re on borrowed time! Prayers to heaven and words spoken from the heart brought perspective to what time remained. Fear and regret knowing this may be...

Flat line ...

Resuscitate, flat line, resuscitate, flat line ...
          and back again ... to sinus rhythm ... to life.
               Three times my...

My driving I thought was sublime
But I failed my test the first time
Staring down at the wheel
It was hard to conceal
That failure to me was a crime

So I applied to take another test
Very determined I would try my best
I answered every question
And I drove to...

Of chances lost and memories I've wept
     As misty silhouettes dance from heart to mind
     When once before no oath was kept
     This grief I've felt cannot stay blind

they lay cold and hungry on war torn streets 
lost in the conflict, no one hugs away fears
frightened, confused, by the noise and the heat
found by children's rescue, crying ... no tears

in a state of shock, in ruins we found  them 
trembling, lying in...

Second chances are rarely granted
Wishes on stars are eternally chanted
I come to you in pieces to make me whole
I look into your eyes, but somehow see your soul
Your dreams of breaking out, being free someday
Searching for the answers, looking for the way
Encountering a light hidden...

When death came, I declared that I could not leave soon
For I had not seen the summer flowers in bloom

Starting them from just a seed back when there was still snow.. white
As they began maturing, I could tell each one on sight

Just large enough to...

My dearest friend
You ask that I take you back
But my love does not bend.
I dream of your touch
But knowledge unveils before me.
You had your chance
Don't you see?
Your time has come
Your time has gone.
A second chance is not for me to give
My love was yours
Your love...

A young miss by the name of Elaine,
Was considered a bit of a pain.
Bawdy words just to goad.
Gaudy clothes fashion mode.
She was never invited again....

I wake to heartache each day of my life 
It’s been the same since I was a child
No father figure that I recall
Just the abuse and the drunken brawls
		 
I just wish that I could change it all 
Back the way I want it to...

In “My field of dreams”
You asked me: “Can I hold your hand”
In an attempt to “salvage” what was left of us

It felt like I was “Free Falling” while we were “Exploring the Shadows”
In between our “Two Worlds Colliding”
Even though it felt like “The Closest thing...

I wish for a second chance... to be with you again and share our lives together..
I promise you.. I will listen to you without saying a word…
I will understand you without misunderstanding…
I will help you to trust me slowly and will show you the way..

Second chance tickets,
Come! 
Don’t miss out, 
Your whole life,
Mistakes,
Gone!
Change your yesterdays,
Start anew today!
With time travel invention,
We have looked,
You definitely need to come,
Your life was terrible.
I started to believe it,
Step on board
Don't miss the portal
People were getting on,
I couldn’t believe it,
All wanting a new life.
Was it...
