What ever happened?


What ever happened?
To the life that I once knew
The one, that was meant
The one, to grow old to

Should I regret?
This mirage of my mind
If only, I could forget
That fate can be blind

Fate is but today
Today is no tommorrow
Regrets are but a way
I justify my sorrow

So, I'll find the joyous flower
In the only garden I grow
And the life that I once knew
Can become the life I know

Bo.

Thank you, I was inspire today looking at some old photos. Wondering if my life should be defined by the way I thought it should turn out, or by the way it did turn out. My poem expresses my conclusion.

Hi Jiminy: Nice poem. It is strange looking back and seeing how we arrived at where we are today. You hit a fork in the road with two paths going in totally different directions, and just have to do your best to decide which one to take. In retrospect we know that we made some bad choices, but not much we can do about those now. Now that we're 'old' it is amazing how fast the time went.
