If life had a remote,
and a button to rewind
would I be where I am?
Would I even be ALIVE?
If I hadn't made the choices,
If I could take it all back
would I choose the same way,
or take another path?
Would I choose to stay again,
or make the choice to go?
Would I choose to bind to him,
or leave him down the road?
Would I choose to better myself,
or turn down the beaten path?
To make my parents proud of me,
or throw me out like trash?
Would I choose to make a life,
or take it effortlessly?
Would I choose to be a mommy young,
or party like a teen?
Would I choose to be MYSELF,
or what society wants me to be?
an
OUTSPOKEN, OPINIONATED, CURVY woman,
or a BITCH as twiggy as a tree?
I think if I could rewind life,
I wouldn't take the risk.
To not know who I may become,
or if I'd even exist.
