If I was asked to go
to war for my County
I'd do it again,
even knowing what it
did to me in the end,
I would go through that
door once again.

If false love and lies
showed up at my door
again in the guise of
an Angel asking me for
help and love and giving
me only lies, I'd do it again,
even knowing of the pain
and heartache she would
bring me in the end,
I would still try to be her
friend and I'd do it again
and try to pretend.

If giving a person all of
your heart and soul while
she takes it apart and rips
in it a big hole, I do it again
because it hurt so good
even knowing her feelings
were hard as wood.

If I had life to live over,
I'd probably follow the
same path of all of the
sorrow and pain, only
hoping to gain knowledge
of my purpose here because
the time I have spent here
has been so dear.                               Jon York   2011
