Back to the drawing board<\/p>\n
failed again<\/p>\n
there\u2019s always something<\/p>\n
that does me in.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Do over they say<\/p>\n
but sugar, it may<\/p>\n
be a grave one day<\/p>\n
no more trying today.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But go back I must<\/p>\n
begin anew, trust<\/p>\n
that trying again<\/p>\n
won\u2019t be the end –<\/p>\n
a beginning?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Erase the old ways<\/p>\n
forget the bad days<\/p>\n
remember the time<\/p>\n
of delicious and healthy<\/p>\n
and getting sleep early.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I must throw bad habits<\/p>\n
into trash baskets<\/p>\n
be kinder to all<\/p>\n
let jealously fall<\/p>\n
into pieces.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Back to the drawing board, says I<\/p>\n
a new plan I shall try<\/p>\n
and just keep re-writing<\/p>\n
\u2018til success is the thing<\/p>\n
and I find my wings.<\/p>\n
