WOULD YOU?

Would you take it, if you get another chance to live your life over again?

Would you cherish anew the pleasures and scorn all the tears and pain?

 

Would you relive the moments, revive the love you’ve chosen?

Would you travel the same smooth roads, make that journey yet again?

 

Would you dive into the ocean that smashed you against a rock?

Would you take another key, one that won’t break in the lock?

 

Would you take the crazy dares, ones that gave you real fright?

Would you keep everything or only those that went right?

 

Would you get seduced by gold, that thing that once put a price on your soul?

Would you seek to have substance to fill that dreadful gaping hole?

 

Would you land as many blows, or would you let them miss by a mile?

Would you then use your head and not be beaten by guile?

 

Would you know the next time you travel which way at the crossroads to go?

And perchance you still took the wrong one, would you know when to go slow?

 

Would you listen to that small voice

Saying you always have had a choice?
