Start Over Again.

By Michelle A

People say that there are second chances,

But you never let me be with you for a couple of dances.

Forgiveness was an accident though,

Now we can't even pass by each other just to say hello.

I can maybe explain,

Can I just start over again?

I've made mistakes in the past,

I think I have fixed them at last.

My life may have not been as clear,

But I can tell you this,

My heart is starting to disappear.

I can endure the pain,

Can I just start over again?

I spent some lonely nights walking on the streets,

And I also faced some defeats.

I decided that I would escape the violence,

The darkness has been too tense.

At least my common sense still remains.

Can I just start over again?

Someday I will open up to you,

First we need to start from step one to step two.

I know that you trust me,

I'll tell you the truth and that's a guarantee.

Can I just start over again?

If so, the clouds will become a castle in Spain.
