Would You Persist

What would you do if the moon fell out of your sky
Would you watch it fall and let it lie
Would you pick it up and set it high
Would you put it back into the sky?

What would you do if the sun was gone from your day
Would you let your world turn to grey
Would you find some new way to pray
Would you get on with your life anyway

What would you do if all love was gone from your heart
Would you let yourself just fall apart
Would you give yourself a brand new start
Would you make your life into an art

What would you do if you lost all control
Would you sink into a heap of coal
Would you find yourself a whole new role
Would you build yourself into a whole

What would you do if you feared all of your dreams
Would you sink to all new low extremes
Would you know that all’s not as it seems
Would you move on then to brand new schemes

What would you do if all you saw was bitter ends
Would you mourn the loss of all your friends
Would you find a thing on which to depend
Would you wait for what the universe sends

What would you do if this is all that exists
Would you hate your life and all of its twists
Would you find a new purpose and make a few lists
Would you take a new viewpoint, would you last, would you persist
