Lament

The choice was mine and mine completely
I could have any prize that I desired
I could burn with the splendor of the brightest fire
Or else, or else I could choose time
Remember, I was very young then
And a year was forever and a day
So what use could 50, 60, 70 be?
I saw the lights and I was on my way
And how I lived
How they shone
But how soon the lights were gone...
