If I Woke Up Tomorrow

If I woke up tomorrow

I wouldn’t change a thing

the ebb’s and flows life brought

has taught me many of things

my belief in a pre-ordained life

enables me to appreciate my life's journey with pure delight

There have been lessons learned

through changing seasons

I’ve learned to embrace the many reasons

for heartbreak and broken promises

the connected emotions

that have brought so much awareness

now no longer careless

careless with the love I exude

I believe it to be true, and with gratitude

the heart that endows me

is the trueness of me

it is my gift of empathy

I realize now

piece by piece

how sky and land meet

the blending of past and present

are all a push towards progression

and as I play the tape back

again, there is nothing I regret

so if I woke up tomorrow

feet grounded to floor

this life I’d again choose to endure.
