The Best Of Me
If I had the chance
to relive my life
I would undo
every error I made
like knots in my laces
then my new life
would be regret free
and after all the corrections
I would choose you again
cause you were always
the best of me

The one thing that never needs correction is true love. Very sweet poem, Andrew.

I always said I would want to relive my life if I could know what I know now. But, that isn’t possible because I wouldn’t be the person I am now without those experiences and making those mistakes to be able to learn and grow from them.
