Choices
Sometimes I wonder what it takes,
To get to that special place,
If only love would get me there,
I’d live life without a care,
But that isn’t how it is,
You never know what you miss,
Until it’s way to late,
But by that time you learn to hate,
You hate yourself and you hate others,
You even learn to hate your brothers,
That is why people say,
There's so much wrong with today,
People forget what it’s like,
To teach a kid to be polite,
Everyone learns lessons untold,
So the bridge of fate unfolds,
You put to use what you learned,
Now see if you win or get burned,
Choices in life you have to choose,
Sometimes you win just to lose,
But the best advice that I can give,
Is you can lose and still win,
Only you can be in control,
So just let your simple life unfold.
