sometimes indecisiveness
is just the wrongest decision
for anyone to ever make
sometimes we just have
to dive in and go with our gut
embracing whatever may result;
sometimes, apologies are enough
when things don't go your way
because it's time to do it mine
sometimes, getting first time right
is not what your life has shown
so, it's okay for me to have another go
it's only taken forty years for you
to realise you love me and be proud
perhaps another forty'll make you really care
your boomer ways are so busted
they don't work here and now
perhaps I need to find my own way
it won't break your ego to be supportive
respect is not earned but extended
perhaps you only need to trust & believe;
every time my child's heart breaks
a memory jolts this scathing parody
perhaps this curse can be broken still:
it doesn't take much to make it right
