Dream Date With Destiny

“HAVE YOU DONE ENOUGH GOOD IN YOUR LIFETIME
DO YOU THINK YOU DESERVE TO GET IN?”
this question ponders in my mind
with each new day that begins
“Can’t answer YOU master,  did not keep score
quite frankly I do not know”
“YOU WANT TO ENTER, YOU’VE KNOCKED AT THE DOOR
AN ANSWER UPON ME MUST BESTOW”
“If my guess is correct, my answer will be
dependant on THY definition
of how much is enough, what’s good to THEE
an outcome that’s mutually beneficial”
“LET’S GO BY WHAT YOU THINK IS FAIR ENOUGH
BY YOUR OWN ACCOUNT, SHOULD YOU GO?”
“Hesitation says plenty, though times were rough
the satisfactory answer is NO”
