Life’s Adventure - Di Scantlebury

If my life was a mirror
What would I see?
All of my pains, joys and sorrows
Reflected back at me
Would I care
Would I stare
Or linger longingly
Would I hope
Would I crave
For things
That could never be?

If my life was a journey
Would you go with me?
A trip into the vast unknown
Or sail on life’s
Mysterious, ominous sea?
Would you dare
Would you care
If it got really stormy
Or the tide changed
Suddenly?

If my life was a prediction
What would I foresee?
Would I amass a fortune
Or be as poor as poor can be?
Would it matter
If dreams shatter
As long as I was well
And love was my champion
To combat life’s
Lonely hell?
