Through the days and days that pass us by
We make little choices throughout our lives
Perhaps sometimes they might seem wrong
But some may they lead to surprises all along
Some think of the road not taken
Or how in their search they’ve left doors unopened
Yet this is the path that we have set foot in
And this is where were headed till the end
But these choices that we make
Do we make them to control, or merely for their own sake?
I say that though time marches on
And mother earth and father sky sing their song
That they do matter
That the words we say are not idle chatter
That they can build a person up
That they can be worth more than enough
To change those around oneself
And be a light in the world, to help
I want to be that light
I don’t want to be snuffed out into the night
And I’m making this choice tonight
Because I want to make it right
And through these words I choose to write
Are all for you my dear friend
Who I want to brighten up till the very end

For a friend...
Happiness is only impossible if you define it as impossible
