HAD I BUT
|
Had I but listened Had I but heeded Had I but followed Had I but caved |
|
Warnings to me shouted Advice to me offered Suggestions to me made Wisdom to me raved |
|
Teeth might be unglistened Help might be unneeded Hope might be unhollowed The road might be unpaved |
|
Forces might be unrouted Weapons might be unproffered Penalties might be unpaid That road might be saved |
|
But who listens? Who heeds? Who follows? Who caves? |
|
Learning grows Experience tells The journey shows Your pathway from Hell |
