Wrong Choices in life
If only we could go back and change

Wrong Choices in life
I look behind at wasted years,
the roads I walked with blinded eyes.
I see the choices hard and wrong,
the moments lost that slipped away.
I long to touch the days before,
when laughter lit the simple hours,
when love was pure and hearts were true,
when time still felt like it was mine.
If only I could turn again,
step back into that brighter place.
I would not stumble as I did,
I would not trade my dreams for dust.
I ask for just one open door,
a chance to walk the path once more,
to move ahead with steady hands,
and live the life I should have lived.
Yet deep inside I know life is not that way.
Bad choice, past mistake, are here to stay.
The choices made today are locked in for life,
each on cutting hearts like a knife.
