If I Could Choose Again

As he thought of losses and gains,
thoughts came to him of a lost love
that he might never see again.

He thought of happiness and pain
and the feelings that still remained
for a special woman now gone from his life.

And he thought that no matter the path
that his future life would take,
he still had important choices to make.

He still wanted to know love
and if he ever had another chance
to be with the woman that he adored
his choice would be the same as before.

"Sweetheart, if I could choose again,
hoping to make all of my dreams come true,
I'd still be choosing you."

Thank you Roniece...
I dearly love her and yet
how can you love someone
that doesn't love you in return?
I mean successfully...James

James, the measure of success may not be in that which is returned, but that which is given unconditionally. You are not alone, brother. Peace.
