The choices we decide upon
Can make or break
What we care for
Or what we strive to be

With a simple
Yes or no
You choose a path
To your life’s destiny

It can bring hope
It can bring joy
But it can also bring loss
For what you care dearly

There is a lesson
To every decision made
What is correct or wrong
We can never know or see

But remember,
Although you never can see
What will come of the choice you made,
Think before you act, diligently

Be careful
Follow your heart
Don’t look back and think
“What If?” regrettably.
