When You Try Again

Welcome back into the world of reality.

The place your dreams are exclusive to sleep –
a quick addiction you must repeat.

So hit the snooze on life every morning
until they’ve been achieved.

It's the luck you stumble on
 to meet your goal –
born into the right family,
tumbling into wealth.

Although being smart
helps your draw…

Having the people in your life
to effectively communicate
that type of intelligence to you –

isn't at all your choice.

It limits the road of occupation
to a narrow, no turning lane.

Guidance is important –

number one
ahead of education
ever meeting you.

Can we quit falling over how life could have been
if better choices could be in our past?

Can we say the clean slate stopped mattering?

Break the chalkboard
and everything it ever stood for?

It’s like we write our ideas in the air
and they blow away
if a gust of wind comes to play.

I don’t want anything in life to be
as simple as the use of an eraser.
Pretending nothing happened,
it's memory – lost.

Carve in stone, make a concrete,
walk away if it doesn't work out.

Don't forget to revisit to know
what went wrong
and what not to do.
