A POEM FOR A YOUNGER ME

I Wonder What

I wonder what I would say to a younger me,

who along the way had grown and changed, and played the game,

but somehow had managed to stay the same.

Would a younger man, fully understand,

how he may be in some distant land,

in a future world where he is past'

I wonder would I understand at last.

Could I save myself from hurt and pain.

or would I just relive it all again,

I wonder what is possible,

would I be changed, or not at all.

If I remained as I am now, 

for better or worse, I'd survive somehow.
