Would you look into the future?

If you could look ahead,
to time not yet past,
would you?

Would you sneak a look,
if you were allowed to,
at the end?

Could you bear to see,
the things which wait,
for you?

If once you made the choice,
you couldn't forget what you saw,
would you look?

Would you want to see,
if you died young,
or grew old?

Would you want to know,
if you died painfully,
or peacefully?

Do you want to know,
if you get married,
or have kids?

If the things which you saw,
would bring joy, pain or both,
would you want to see?

Do you dwell on the past,
without looking ahead,
of yourself?

Do you take each new day,
as it comes to you,
or go and get it?

Do you believe in fate,
that it's already set out,
would you still look?
