If you could do just a bit better in school. Have that GPA that you needed to make it in the school that "you" preferred the most. Have that essay that actually captured the attention of the hundreds of board members for Universities. Making it through and actually sitting in absorbing all the knowledge you could. Becoming something you would actually admire today as you looked at your old high school diploma. You could've stop in the midst of things and realized that what you needed the most was a simple smile to get you up that extra point, that smile that would've lightened everyone up when they saw you.
If you could fix whatever was wrong in your marriage and make things right; get the kids back, sleep in your bed rather than the couch, and have the amazing joy of her kiss every single morning as you sat at the table for breakfast; with that sweet scent of freshly cooked bacon and eggs and freshly squeezed orange juice just lingered. You could take back all those hateful things you ever said to her, replace every curse with a smile. You could cancel beer with the guys on your anniversary and set up that candle light dinner that would be an everlasting moment in her heart.
If you could live and breath with those people who past away before you and share with them an extra moment, an extra smile, laugh, or perhaps even a good conversation to tell them how much they really meant and how much you loved them. You could look them in their eyes and carry that feeling that connects people with each other, looking deep into their blue, brown, or hazel eyes and realize you want this feeling immortalized because you know they'll be gone.
"If you could stop that one tear from falling by saying you're sorry and that you never meant to hurt anyone." - Ryan
