Life is about choices
To get something
You have to give something up
To have everything
That’s not even a thing
Because only God controls all things
The end
And the beginning
Of everything
So today I choose
To skip my homework
And go to the lake
Because as summer goes
It is getting late
And today the sun was hot
In it I need to bake
So I did what I always do
When the choice is two
One, your work is due
The other, to bring life to you
Memories and good feelings
Stress easing
My sensations pleasing
I can still get my homework done
But soon it will be September
And there will be no more summer fun
No more time at the lake shore
Under a golden sun
If you had my choice for you?
Which one?
