Best Take Chances Poems

chances of me leaving home
chances of me donning blues
chances of me wearing a flight suit
chances of me being chosen
     to carry the sports flag
chances of me staying

what chance do I have to find love
chances of living a life apart

My heart is overflowing
With a love that just keeps growing
Lighting the path toward hope
Leaving me weightless, like a feather
More alive because we’re together

My mind is filled with joy
Laughter and love, amazing power
Whispered to the heavens
On the rays of lemon sunlight
Reflected in the stars
As they twinkle...

He never really thought about it nor did he see reason to care
Life was about true grit and he knew damn sure it wasn't fair
As he had made it this far and never needed anybody's hand
He didn't just wish upon a star but everything he...

Do you believe that second chances are a way to mend what was broken?
Apologizes are not easily accepted and hardly ever spoken.
Suppose you we’re given another chance to undo all your past mistakes.
Would that alter your life’s fate?
A lot times in my life I wonder...

I
gave
him a
second chance,
a third and fourth chance.
He was a smooth talker-   a fraud!
Prisoner of pretty words, I did not see the truth,
oh, I was smitten easy prey for a skilled abuser and yet I miss him still!

His
words
pretty,
charming ways,
his fierce deep kisses!
My chain ...

Somewhere down the line,
When everything seemed fine,
I slipped and had a fall,
Oh! It was great, not small;
I tried, but couldn't get up,
And was feeling truly fed up,
I asked God with a frown,
"Why did You let me down?"
He smiled gently at me,
And said, "Don't you see?
You...

Love is heart given
Hoping we receive the same
Chances lovers take

When came the moment
That we held each others heart
Love, made no mistake

One life together
Retrospect and circumspect
Is what we made it...

There's something I must confess
I have made the biggest mess
And I'm sorry as can be
Begging you to forgive me
Standing her with my regrets
Hoping something in you lets
My apology be heard
Knowing your heart is badly hurt
There's no way I will stop trying
To repair a heart that's...

Eh, pal what are your chances of winning?
Ah, you could have banked all this saving
for an early retirement...
to cherish that sentiment!
When you're completely broke, start cringing!...

Let it go;
Say not a word,
Save us both from all the hurt. 
It's been too long, 
Our friendship's gone. 
Your "jokes" have gone a bit too far.
You'll miss me, yes, 
But just because, 
A door-mat is all I ever was. 
You walked over me, 
Never...

Events revolve inside a magic ball
People change outside a hallowed, crystallized ball....

Late of '56, a run through time I'll take
In your sweet blue shorts and top       
You stopped my time and said
"Mister, a ticket for 1 if you please
I have this night all for myself,     ...

I've been watching the people across the street for about a year now. We wave at each other every once in a while, not really much more than seeing a familiar face without a name. There were a couple of times when the granddaughters would...

Me... closed box... death hangs*, 
Heartless dreamers can't see in
Bastards! Am I dead?


Poet's Notes:

A famous thought experiment in Physics in which the life or death of Schridinger's 
Cat (an imaginary animal) in a box depends on unpredictable chance. The 
experiment unimpeded, the cat will die,...

Please don't cry baby
I know you're frighten
I know you're hungry
I know you're painful
I know you want something
I know you're asking for help
I know you want to follow
I know you want my company or escort
Oh, please don't cry baby 
You'll  have a lot of chances...
