Numbers

One night, when I was 20
I went to bed
When I awoke
I was 30

For every roll of joy
There is one strand of regret
I could have been better
I could have done better

Now I go to bed
And think of things to be
Will I embrace 40
Willingly without regret
Or will it sneak upon me
Before I bid farewell to 30
