RISKING AND HOPING

You can do your best

Yet be filled with regrets

At the outcome of events

You couldn't prevent

You can't take life for granted 

It happens hard. 

Like you covered the bases

But life does not play fair. 

You can be blameless 

Yet hold yourself to blame

Imagine what you could have done better

To even the game. 

Found myself vindicated 

But still carried guilt 

Caught myself a lucky break

Was found beyond reproof. 

We learn from lessons on how to live

Yet take risks we can't even believe! 

It's human nature in a nutshell 

Risking and hoping that things end well.

But again, you can do your best

Yet be filled with regrets

At the outcome of events

You couldn't prevent...

Iyanu.
