The Voice

I am

who I am;
not who you want me to be.
I understand you are
who you are and
will not easily become
who I want you to be.
There are lots of
I should have been;
that you would
bring about frequently,
I am sorry,
I cannot focus on
should haves and would haves;
I cannot linger on those thoughts;
Time is precious,
I have moved on,
moving on in the present
to concentrate on what
I am going to do today;
or what I want to pursue in the future.
If you had agreed with me or not;
We need to find a common ground,
I believe we should
hold our hands together
and walk into new possibilities,
because we cannot built this family,
without you and me.
