As We Play Our Games.

When you wake up in the morning, what is your first thought ?

I can't wait to see what challenges today brings,

How today seems just the same as every other so far,

If anyone will notice, if you don't show up for work,

Or maybe just five more minutes of peace.



Then when you finally get up, ready to face the day ahead,

As you take that step out the door, it really hits you,

Anything could happen to you, you have no control,

Yes you can alter your path, change direction,

But eventually you will end up in the same place.



The way how people show no compasion for others,

you all carry on without a care in the world,

As long as your world hasn't changed or stopped,

But what if you took a moment stepped back from it,

Looked from anothers point of view,

Does the picture become any clearer ? or

Ineviteably are we clouded by our own judgement.



Everyday we make descisions that could change it all,

The way life turns out, the events of tomorrow,

So when it comes to choosing, making a final descision,

You won't know if you have choosen the right one,

If your lucky you will be able to feel it, and just know,

But if not then our we blinded by ranges of emotions.



Does the way we feel for someone, something change it all,

If you love someone it makes it harder to let go,

If you feel passionately about something,

Then does it take over, make you forget your purpose,

Constantly we are always questioning things we do,

Paths we choose, mistakes we make, regrets that we have.



So in the end do we really have a say in our own destiny,

We Make choices yes but how much do they really count,

When it comes down to it, does fate have the final say ?

Because in theory:

If it is meant to be then it will sooner or later.
