It's All About Choice...

 

 

It’s All About Choice…

 

Today I saw a flicker of a life that might have been

Had you simply been there to even hold my hand

If you had done what you said you’d do...

Vows, promises much less than true.

 

A little piece of a life we planned

I cry  sometimes to understand

Examining and digging deep

Ingrains itself in walls of sleep.

 

I walked away, I made the choice

I listened to my inner voice

It doesn’t mean it’s easy now

To wonder why and

wonder how?

"Had you simply been there to even hold my hand; If you had done what you said you'd do"... a series of simple, seemingly insignificant things that make all the difference. Great job in communicating the simple fact that "yes, it was my choice, and yes, it was the right choice, but nonetheless, it was a choice I hoped I would never have to make and it is far from easy".
"Today I saw a flicker of a life that might have been... a little piece of a life we planned"... two very powerful lines with strong lyrical qualities. I've said it before and will say it again... would love to see you put some of your words to music someday. Always a pleasure to review your work :)

This is awesome! That "inner voice"...
It never steers us wrong... if we listen to
the right one :)

"Ingrains itself in walls of sleep"

Excellent line!!

The entire piece is great! Thank you!

Today I saw a flicker of a life that might have been - Wow. I like this line very much.

Ingrains itself in walls of sleep - What a powerful statement.

This is excellent, Kath...questions that only your psyche knows of the answers for certain.
