Stories
you can
do everything right
or everything wrong
you can read all the books
or none at all
you can fall in love
or never come close
you can travel the world
or never leave home
you can work all your life
or not
you can believe in dreams
or give them up
you can pick all the flowers
or leave them in the ground
you can drive down the street
or walk
you can save all your money
or spend it
you can talk and talk and talk
or listen
you can give and give and give
or take
you can hurt someone
or heal them
you can shuffle
or deal
you can hold on
or let go …
you can live as if you know
or live and know you don’t
and no matter what you do
or don’t do
nothing prepares you
for The End
