What would you change

If you could change

Anything at all?

 

Would you make your parents

Happy? Or would you go back

In time? Correct a mistake? Do

Better at school? Be nice to

A friend you lost? Let your parents

Get divorced? What would you change?

 

Would you apply to a different college? Get

A different roommate? Watch different shows? 

Make different friends? Do your work? Transfer?

Get a different job? Stop putting off that novel? Be

Happy? Tell your parents to stop making you miserable?

What would you change?

 

Hindsight is 20/20. Anger's not your friend. But maybe. 

Just maybe. Maybe life works like it's supposed to.

What would you change? Maybe nothing. Maybe everything. 

Look ahead, don't look back, for in that way lies madness.
