Life

Life is shaped by memories
of actions and decisions.
An accumulation of desires
and our own ambitions.

Looking back, life chose a path
that some would like to change.
You wonder what would have been
or regret a choice once made.

I am my life, my life is me
my decisions make it so.
I realize to change a thing
could ruin the life I know.

Thank you for the life I have
without you it's not the same.
The memories of the could have been
lead me to who I became.
