If I could do it all over again
walk again
also the harder step

I would have liked it so different
if it was

the path never runs straight and on roses always
swings and jumps
especially at harder times

I would have liked to do it differently
walked crooked from now on?

notched, not damage-free
lived
embraces and hates
but whether things would be so different a second time

I would have wanted to miss what shaped me
avoided what hurt so much

I'm sure the path behind me looks like what's to come
there is no way around it
then to continue
packed and loaded
supported and persistent
my own pace
my path

Not lived damage-free
