Hard living youth
is how I describe
the last twenty years
of my life.
Certainly, I didn't live
as dangerously as others
but there is so much more
I could have been.
There is no time for regret.
There is only now.
How wondrous
to be here still!
These words are not as poetic
as one would wish
but they are as honest
as I can be right now.
Not every poem needs
to change the world.
Some are content
to just be.
