We Could

We could …

But what about consequences?

 

I’ve thought about it

And savoured the thought

Dreamed about it

And woke up still smiling

 

So, we could …

But what about responsibilities?

 

The thrill of beginnings

Leads to the ache of endings

Happy-go-lucky now

Means sad-and-lonely later

 

Yes, we could …

But what about expectations?

 

I’ve danced with images

And felt the beat of anticipation

Sung the very scenery

And heard nature join the chorus

 

No doubt, we could …

But what about destinations?

 

The paths of travellers

Cross, tangle and part ways

The stars of destiny

Seldom blink and shine in sync

 

We could …

But would we? And should we?
