My Choice

What didn't I do yesterday
What could I have done today
What does time really mean
Once misused it slips away
All my once felt dreams
Have I lived to see them thru
Did I follow thru them yesterday
Or think someday soon
Did I sit silent thinking of
all I could achieve
Did I think someday
I would accomplish all these precious deeds
Did I believe that I would get to that
list of things to do
That tommorrow would be the start
Of my exciting life, all my dreams come true
Why didn't I take action
When my words and talk said it all
Did I think of the illusion
That I was walking tall
Did I feel that if I spoke of dreams
That they would all come true
Did I see visions of my success and feel
"Whew" now I am through
Though seeing visions in my head
Were only make believe
I wished I would have taken that step thru
The step of action toward a life
of actually living
Now I lay here in a box
both scared and trembling cold
The light has gone, I'm all alone
with my make belief life unknown
I never really done all the things I wish I did
If given another opportunity
I would not live inside my head
