"One more chance"

Arensang Jamir 1993 (Nagaland)

Free verse
"Let the darkness sleep and be at rest.
Let me open the door now and welcome the light.
Let me not look back to what is gone.
Let me look forward to what is ahead.
We only live once so let me give one more chance to myself and to others."
