The Retelling of My Story

Start the story again,
Change a few characters.
Recreate the world they live in,
Destroy any wrongs there might’ve been.
Build a new land,
Create a new way of life.

Dreaming of my life deconstructed,
Then with wisdom, reconstructed.
Alter what’s been done,
Remove none of the fun.
Take out all the bad,
Leave a life of glad.

Changed all that I could,
But the question is good.
Is that me recomplete,
A new drawing on a plain sheet?
I’d give it all to rebuild my life,
I hate this one it’s too much strife!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This one is all about regret. But although I say I'd change all that I could, there's only one thing I truly regret but part of changing that would require lots of tiny changes. I don't think about that regret often, but when I do it always stings.

I feel the same way, if I changed my last 10 years; a time I refer to as "The Dark Days", I wouldn't be where I am today.....happy.
