Choices

Willy Beeman

I sit back and I ponder all the "what ifs?" in my life.
What if I did what I was supposed to when it was time, would I really be alright?

The world title that I flushed down the toilet because of my ego and vice.
Losing the woman of my dreams and that one Birthday night.

What if I would had won it? Would my life be different in anyway?
Would I have been able to listen to her, would she still be right here today?

Would I have won all those cage fights had I never felt that pain?
Would I have been less successful? Would I feel less insane?

One thing I do know is God has been my guide.
We are blessed with choices and then we must decide.

It's like cause and effect with desire and temptation, mixed up all together.
The choices we make dictate the lives we live, always and forever.

Had I done what I was supposed to, would I really be alright?

      But who can say you didn't
      do right maybe you were just sailing on the winds of fate that night

        A great write, and with God as your guide like you wrote, I think everything will turn out the way it's supposed to.--Christina
