Opportunities hoped for
Sit heavily on your mind
You’re excited and anxious
Awaiting the time when you can transform
A chance into a moment into a memory
Opportunities pursued
Alters dreams into efforts
In your quest to manipulate
One perfect interval
From a heartfelt attempt
Opportunities approaching
Felt just around the corner
Your mind is focused; your body ready
The moment is so close
That you can feel its pursuit under your skin
Opportunities arrived
Becomes the moment of truth
The window is open
And the challenge is set
Between success and shortcoming
Opportunities fading
Sees your chances slipping away
Fear starts to set in
As the body betrays you
And the minds stability turns to wavering inconsistancy
Opportunities squandered
Rips at you like a jagged razor
The horrible miscarriage
Of luck and preparation
Leaves you forever wanting
Opportunities lost
Hits you like a ton of bricks
Filling you with dejection and frustration
And the stagnant stench of failure
Is impossible to shake
As you come realize the insufficient life of opportunities
The deepest hurt is understanding
That the thing you want most in this world
Is at that moment beyond your reach
And there is nothing you can do but wait for opportunities next approach
