The choices we make

The choices we make, Can be the difference between finding a soul mate, And having a cell mate. The choices we make, Can be the difference between mates' rates, And paying the rates. The choices we make, Can be the difference between not being late, And a broken dinner plate. The choices we make, Can be the difference between staying up late, And the boss having no need to berate. The choices we make, Can be the difference between Marrying Kate, And staying in a single state. The choices we make, Can be the difference between tempting fate, And having something better to celebrate. The choices we make, Can be the difference between having time to create, And having time to hate. The choices we make, Can be the difference between being in a positive state, And worrying about your heart rate.
