Have you?

Have you not chased a glow because the walkway was overcast?
Have you not followed a flow because the stream bubbled too fast?
Have you not taken a journey because vastness of the distance dampened your spirits?
Have you not stopped at a haven because you wanted the conquest to last?

Have you been seen your dreams melt away because you had no courage?
Have you mourned your desires as they died because you lacked conviction?
Have you let your love slip out of your weak clutches because you did not believe?
Have you lost a friend because you disagreed and never worked on the friction?

Have you not faced a friend because guilt ate away at your nerve?
Have you not embraced an enemy because past recollections blurred present verve?
Have you not lent a hand to a stranger because the minutes ticked away?
Have you not smiled with a child whose beauty you failed to observe?
