Cheer

You are worse than no one,
And that makes you as good

As the rest. You may find
Times when you feel your choice

Is a bad thing or worse.
Could be that bad or worse

Flow from that point once seen
As a part of your past,

But now you have no choice.
You feel past can’t be changed.

Oh, your past can be changed,
Can’t not change, but you’re right,

Your past is not your choice.
The change is not your choice.

Some find peace in the thought
Of death, since then all this

Will be out of their hands.
Good news—some of that peace

Can be yours. It’s all out
Of your hands, past all choice.

Life and death have one soul.
You have no choice in that.
