I reflect on what we might have been
had things been different
life’s unforseen,twists and turns
following fates convuluted hand
I had a glimpse or a dream
of a different future – built on sand
Would we have been greater in pairing
or a disaster that fate has been kind in sparing
our paths met, then diverged, adding richness
loneliness and sadness in the parting
leaving a layer of learning which must add growth
or is this but a hollow dream
What I am yet to become
will be due to singular striving
Happiness and fulfillment
in this life needs work and dedication
I reflect on what is now
what might have been I disallow
Another world, another life, we might be bliss
Until then I gather life and fulfill my destiny
unable to be blue living life to the full
only more so because I shared a morsel with you.
