What if?

What if each day was a test?
What if each day was a chance?
What if you lived to be a hundred years old?

That’s three hundred and sixty five thousand chances,
minus your baby time, of course,
to count how many hearts you shattered,
and how many hearts you pieced together again;
to tally how many times you sided,
with your demons against your better angels,
and how many times you took the road less traveled.

What if each day was a test?
What if each day was a chance?
To prove to us all…
Who you really, really are
