The Poetry of Michael Langston


(51) TO BEGIN AGAIN

To be able...
To begin my life all over again,
To have all of the youth
That I've lost restored to me,
To have the wisdom this time
Not to make the same mistakes,
And to know, when I finally reach
The same point once again,
That this time I've truly lived
And loved and enjoyed my life,
And not simply wasted it...
As I did the first time around.
