I got a list of long ago
mistakes I made
that I can’t let go,
and I know
they made me who
I am,
but *******

I could use a flash back.
I could use a rewrite.
I could use a do over.
Can I get one tonight?

Got a handful of
people that I loved
who will not
be coming back from
the other side
of that make believe
afterlife.

I could use a flash back.
I could use a rewrite.
I could use a do over.
Can I get one tonight?

Not enough fingers and toes
to count all of those
mistakes that take
and shake me from
my quiet repose.
I hate all of those
bad decisions,
but I am in
no position
to revisit
and fix them.

I could use a flash back.
I could use a rewrite.
I could use a do over.
Can I get one tonight?

I won’t get a flash back.
I won’t get a rewrite.
I won’t get a do over
tonight,
so, I need to just
get one with my
little life.
