Second Chances


BY CAROLE NICHOLS

It's my dearest wish,
To be able to feel once more;
To not be afraid to take a chance,
To see what life has in store.

I long to hold my arms open,
Inviting love to step within;
To find that place sweeter than passion,
To let forever begin again.

I yearn to be able to trust,
But it'll take some time, I know;
I don't want to foolishly leap,
Only to regret not going slow.

Second chances are hard to find,
And even harder to recognize;
So I make myself go one step at a time,
And look for my heart in disguise.
