Missed opportunities

You do not get unlimited chances to have the things we want. And this I know. Nothing is worse than missing an opportunity that could change your life.

I wanted a quiet weekend. It's been anything. But.

I think I wanted the time to think, to exhale. From everyone and everything.

I think I wanted the time to sieve thru the opportunities from the lies.

I think I wanted the time to remind myself again of the things that I want out of my life from here on in.

I wish I didn't have to think. That I just knew.

Maybe then, it would have been a quiet weekend.
