Cross Roads

Whatever you do
all comes back to you

I have a stubborn nature
I am foolish at times
selfish and unforgiving
some say mean

spouting words and phrases
I thought I knew
but did not listen
of life, of love, of nothing

I failed to hear
when friends showed concern
I did not heed
warnings born from caring

Gliding through days and nights
forgetting it was my life
going on as if I were invisible
hiding, while trying to be just scenery

but things happen for a reason
as I've always said
Sometimes a wake up call
or a push

Some of the most valuable lessons
have to be learned the hard way
so that you remember
and don't have to go through them again

We aren't made of
what we are dealt
we are made of
how we deal with what we are handed

Life altering changes
all of choice
you can never go backward
but you can always choose
to go the other way ~fs
