Array ( [sid] => 156971 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Maybe [time] => 2010-01-26 13:31:45 [hometext] => Im New to all this but love to write.....Almost all my poems are about my experiences in my life and my thoughts on them... [bodytext] => Maybe I would have been more understanding.If I wasn’t to busy trying to be Understood.

Maybe i would have been more loving
If I wasnt to busy trying to be loved..

Maybe I would have stop to think. If I wasnt to busy giving my thoughts...

Maybe I would have thought about your feelings.
If I wasnt to busy telling you how I felt..

Maybe I would have been a better student.If I wasnt to busy trying to be the teacher...

Maybe I could have done Gods will sooner in life.If I wasnt so busy doing mine.

Maybe I would have admitted to be powerless.If I wasnt to busy tyring to act powerfull...

Maybe I wouldn’t feel spiritually bankrupt...If I wasn’t busy trying to get a penny for my thoughts.

Maybe I would have never learned this now.. If I wasnt busy being like that then...

Maybe now I can start to grow. If I just get busy and put that side of me away that thinks its grown...

Maybe just maybe the change can begin.Or maybe me realizing all this the change has begun..

I like the concept you have explored in this poem when you are too self absorbed then self realisation sets you on the journey to change.Its a strong challenging poem.
