Seized Opportunity

Periods of my life
flash before my eyes
reminding me of
regrets
decision
missed opportunities

Failure to exercise
the instrument of faith
Out of touch
with the inner being

But some I seized
for the sake of escape
That free ride
up out of the artic circle
Hell yeah, I'll take that.................
