Personal Shot In The Dark

We cannot change the people

we are

We cannot put out the fire

that keeps our ember glowing

Altering our aura

will only confuse our being

and jump start repetitive patterns

We are

given strength

to use or abuse

We can only try to cope

with our personal shot in the dark.

I just found this. I wrote it about 2 years ago and have no idea about the meaning. Sorry.
