If One Could Start Anew

We all have our dreams of the things we would do,
If given the change we could start life anew;
A different career would be high on the list,
For so many realise too late that they've missed
The  chance to do something that they would enjoy
Where they all their talents could better deploy.
Another might want with no shadow of doubt
To study the subjects on which they've missed out.
Others might never have married their spouse
Or spent such a fortune on buying a house.
Everyone know many things they would change,
If only existed some way to exchange,
The stage in their life that they're currently at
For a date in the past; for this would mean that
That after the start of that chosen day
Their lives could be lived in a different way,
