My Regrets

If

If I had taken a right instead of a left,
I would still be heir to watch the sunset.

If I wasn't gossiping on the phone while driving,
I would still be heir to take care of my kids.

If I playing my music to the defining level,
I would still be heir to celebrate my 10 anniversary

If I only looked before I crossed the tracks,
I would still be heir to help pay the bills.

If my memoirs where in the correct position,
I would still be heir to celebrate my mothers 76 birthday

If I was wearing my seatbelt,
I would still be heir to go to church every Sunday.

If I wasn't sick,
I would still be heir to curse god for making me go to the store.

If I wasn't going 60 when I was supposed to be going 25
I would still be heir to have thrills in my life.

If, If, If only I could go back in time and fix my wrongs.
I wouldn't be here talking to my dead relatives.

If, is all I can ask my shelf as I look back to that dark and gloomy day.
