A dilemma

P.H.Rose

                  A dilemma...

 

I have a dilemma, each day that I ask,
Myself, my life, as I walk wearing this mask.
Would I change the terrible time, when I was young,
to throw out the evil, and have a normal life run.
No weight I would carry, no fear I would find,
I could then have, a normal child's mind.
Listen and learn, the lessons they tried to teach,
get to the potential, I know I could then reach.
The dilemma I have, is if I then changed my past,
Would the future I'm at, still then come to pass.
You see without my children, my grandkids and loving wife,
I wouldn't have, this happy and beautiful life...
       Have i traveled this rocky road,
       To appreciate what I have today.
             For This love I now feel,
        Builds me whole, in every way..

      They laugh at me sometimes
      As I can get a bit over zealous
      About the things I love and believe
      In.... but I am Me and hope that
      People like what they see. Thank you WBL for those lovely comments...
