I Can Live a Life
I can live a life, a life full of desire, I can live my life, a life of flame and fire. I can wander along winding roads, searching from within deep shadows to what life may hold.
I can seek the truth of what life can bring, I can live a life a life on high or slink along the edges of a crooked road, never learning, never embracing the moment and being bold.
Living life is a bold choice, a choice to embrace of what it can hold, or alas to wander aloof, lost along a stained road.
I choose my challenge in life, to love, to embrace to sacrifice, I will not play it so safe that I will languish in muck and mire, I choose to embrace, I choose my life with some passion and fire.
I have carried the stains of love, I have carried the stains of hate, I have carried the stains of loss, I will embrace the stains of fate. To the end of my days, no matter how I am stained, it will make me stronger, better, happy in life to know that I was bold, I took chances, I have no regrets, 40 years from now I will smile as I lay my head down to rest for awhile…Poetry by Dean
