Every day and opportunity passes by
Each day I let it through
I can't grasp the freedoms to choose
So I make no choices at all
I'm not ready to dive in again
I won't be for a long time
The daily rituals I call my own
I enjoy my schedule the way it is
When I get the call, the text, the mail
I read each line with a guarded mind and heart
Responsibility is not my friend
I can only be responsible for myself
I can't give you what you deserve today
I don't want to give at all
When new opportunities come my way
I must turn and walk away
My complexities since replaced with simplicity
I have no reasons to play that part
I drive alone, I think alone
Where I'm at my very best
The warning label emblazoned on my head
Ever present never hidden
This is who and what I am
It's better that they stay away
Some day things will change
Not sure I'll worry too much
I'm enjoying being a single retiree
I write my rules and break them when I want to
