If Only

I could change 

And rearrange

My life, tho' I admit

It would sound strange

That the meaning of words

Will be opposite than heard

All in my control

Without it being absurd

Like

Slow times will pass

     Good times will last

            Difficult people dealings

                Won't lead to bad feelings

            The end will be right when I begin

                And fat would be thin.

          Tired would be awake

     Give instead of take

And to just switch around

   Up, instead of down

If only, 

If only, 

        Up, instead of down.
