If I wanted to love, would I be able to?
If I wanted to hate, would I hate forever?
If I wanted to die, would I go to heaven?
If I wanted to live, would I live in a happy world?
If I wanted to, would I be able to?

There are so many ways one could interpret this. I happened to imagine the meaning along the lines of an elevated consciousness from which one could opt into entertaining certain emotions =P... Or it could be as simple as wondering about the possibilities of life. Either way, keep writing! Happy scribblings!
