Over Again 

by Angel

A do over would be a really good thing to have because I wish I could take back what I did that got me in here. I hate the fact that I’m locked up because I’ve lost so much time with the ones I care about most. I would only take the do over if I could still be who I am because I hated who I was turning into. My mom didn’t even know who I was. I kept distancing myself from my family. Those are the reasons why I would only take the do over. 

I realized my heart has been broken for a very long time. I never had the chance to step back and see if I was alright. Life kept going on and I couldn’t keep up. I see all I needed was to understand my past and not let it define me. I never got to ask myself questions like why did everything turn out the way it did? Why did I fall so deep into the dark? Why did I get so caught up in life? These questions keep me going on forever, but these are questions I never had the chance to ask myself. 

Life was like a revolving door. Kept running into challenges and obstacles. A do over is something you will never get. It’s like time, you can’t walk up into a store and ask for three years back. It just doesn’t happen like that. 

Time is a valuable thing to have. So, what are you doing with your time to help your situation? Ask yourself these questions and I bet you’ll see the change that you’re looking for. You can keep asking to do things over again.
