Poem-One More Day

Eternity briefly opens up.
You can choose to stay or chose to go.
You choose your destiny,
The fork in the road.

Your life review is very brief.
The emotions you go through-
will feel like eternity.

From every heart felt moment
that was bitter sweet-
To the crippling times that made you weep.

Every detail you relive again.
Until you meet yourself at the end.

And in that moment when you are through,
You realize there was so much you still didn't do.

If only you could have one more chance-
You'd be more honest with that one friend.

You'd share your thoughts with those you loved.
And tell them to fight and never give up.

You'd apologize to those you've hurt.
And make mends to those you've burned.

If given just one more day,
You could say all the things you need to say.

So as you stand at the fork in the road,
One door you will have to close.

One road leads you back again,
the other you can forgive.
The choice is yours my friend.
