To Have or Have Not : Life

written by Poet : EC


Why go weeping when lost days return as years?
You didn't go there, you didn't come here, you wail
always hungry for what was lost
but still, silly one, you went to the place called Paradise

Not that you wanted to go there
everyone else longed for this place
you didn't
all you wanted was lost long ago
exactly as you put it: Lost and never retrieved

To give and have is not the same
to stay in the moment of your own choice
that's not fate
to chose instead of being chosen isn't life
