If Only I could

By Jeffy John

I’ve lived almost half my life,

and lost my energy and the vibe,

to run ahead with zeal and enthusiasm,

to follow my calling, my dream, my passion.

Misunderstandings, understatements,

dejections and rejections,

have made me bitter and lonely,

nobody to look upon, not even

my own shadow.

My path has taken a turn, very narrow.

To where do I head now, I stand clueless.

My life of three decades,

seems worthless.

If only I could get a chance before my death,

one wish granted,

that I could go back to the time

when my days as a child, had just started.

If only I could go back.............
