Starting Over

Starting Over

And if
Given
Opportunities 
Above 
All else

Starting
Over 
Feels 
Accurate

Dependent
Too
Much
When
All I
Needed
Was
Independence

From
That
Of
Life
Or her

But
With regrets
Casual 
Mistakes

And 
Quick
Decisions

The boxes
Now housed
In

Temporarily
Permanent
Seem
Dismissable
In all
Seriousness

Yet
Starting
Over
Carries
Permanent
Dependence 
On independence
Of self

And on
Those
Closest
In
Arms length
And 
Pillow 
Sharing 
Apart

Starting over
Is 
Accurate 
Yet
A dream
Now
For
All
That is
Found

Feels
Lost
