Escape.

Everything in life comes at a cost.
To be happy, one must endure sadness.
To make friends, one must meet enemies.
To love, one must hate.
To gain something, one must leave something behind.
Sometimes things aren't worth losing something in the process.
Then again, some things are worth sacrificing your whole world for.

It all comes down to decisions.
The choices you make are what sets your future,
Determining what is what.
You can't complain about the negative in your life,
Because it is what you chose that triggered it.
Intentions mean nothing, when your actions are all that people see.

Sometimes its too late for regret.
When you lose or gain something that was never worth it,
Then grieve about it all you want.
Everyone makes mistakes in life,
Its a common fact.
Some mistakes are best left mistaken,
Others could ruin you forever.
But that's what you chose.

Misery is a choice.

You can't turn back time,
But you can look back and relive it in your mind.
You can't take back the past,
But you can keep thinking about the options you missed out on.
You can't chase after history,
But you can convince yourself that you'll find it in your future.

Reality is set.
But you can think whatever you please,
Dream whatever you want,
But its just another form of;
Escapism.
