SUPPOSE...







SUPPOSE…




          ~ ~ ~ ~  ~ ~ ~ ~  ~ ~ ~ ~  ~ ~ ~ ~      


Suppose you lived on a desert island
With no one just you, sun, sea and sand,
In some ways this would be a paradise
But, as normal, there is always a price.


~  ~      ~  ~


Just think, you could do as you wanted to
You could please yourself, no one to stop you,
Laze about and do nothing at all
Indulge yourself from morning `til nightfall.


~  ~      ~  ~


No pressure of normal everyday life
No strain of having a husband or wife,
No one to love or to love you back
Could be a life with peace and no flack.


~  ~      ~  ~


If you don`t care or love anyone
Then there`d be no pain when they are gone,
This could be a life of ignorant bliss
But being alone is the price for this.


~  ~      ~  ~


Remember, if you`ve never had it
It is said that you`ll never miss it,
So this island could be heaven for you
Living without things you never knew.


~  ~      ~  ~


Would you like this life and spare yourself pain?
Where the sun always shines and there`d be no rain,
Would this be the life that most people chose?
It`s all hypothetical I suppose.
