What Does It Take Poem by Audrey Heller

What does it take, to make someone
understand, what life's all about? What
does it take, to make someone realize,
there are certain things we shouldn't
have to do without? What does it take,
for someone to find forgiveness in their
heart? What does it take, for someone
to let you know, it's time for a brand new
start? What does it take, to make someone
open up their eyes and see? What does it
take, for someone to say let it ride and let
it be? If you can change the way you think
and admit you have to take some of the
blame, there can be a new beginning.
But if you cannot forgive, it's a terrible
way to live and no one, ends up winning!
