If I Were A Better Man

I'm not a good man.

I've lost the only two women I've ever loved.

I've been divorced twice.

I've been cut off from my family and their wealth.

I've been to rehab.

None of that makes me irredeemable. But the truth is, I set fire to everything good in my life. A traumatic event in my past poisoned me from the inside out, twisting me into someone unrecognizable. I numbed the pain with substances, treated women like they were disposable, and kept what little was left of my heart locked behind an impenetrable wall.

Then, after yet another DUI, fate intervened. Someone from my past offered me a way out, a second chance.

Fate is funny like that. Maybe, in the blink of an eye, you get one last shot at something real... And maybe, this time... I'll be the man who deserves it.
