To live in peace.

Every day I awake and notice something new.
Everyday I awake and notice I know so few.
And everyday I awake and know I have to choose
To travel through life and manage not to lose.

I have to take so many decisions , some good some gray
And I have to make them day by day.
Its what we choose that creates or life
What makes us live in peace or in a strife.

We can take so many ways on our path
But in our hearts we'll always know what’s right
We'll know what will darken and what will light.
It's when we decide with our mind that we do wrong.
To decide in life is just an immortal song.

But I finally choose to live in peace
Some say it cant be done but I assure them it can.
I explain it's always been my master plan.
To choose always with love and to be alive
To control the choosing without giving a strive.

    Welcome to Allpoetry and thank you for entering

    In the last line of the first stanza, it should be "lose"
    The flow was direct and ran well.

    Thank you for entering and good luck

    The subject of this poem is good and gets one thinking. You must be careful of forcing rhyme within a poem has it can end up destroying a truly good write.

    Good luck - let the ink flow and your fingers dance

    The first stanza had me smiling at the knowledge that yes we do wake up everyday and seee new things and take chances, and your final stanza made me smile even more because it is your master plan to get through life happy

    Wonderful

    This poem is great and meaningful. Just too many grammatical errors though.

    I think this poem is really cool. This poem is a philosophy all in itself; good work.
