Different

You're left with nothing;
nothing to say,
nobody to listen,
nothing to care about.
Your feelings go back and forth
all too easily.

Cast aside
with nothing left but regrets.
The cheery feelings of yesterday
now completely gone.
What's left,
only bitterness.
Maybe things could have changed.
Maybe, just maybe
it could have been different.

Maybe things just couldn't have been different. I like the concept behind the poem you wrote here but no one needs to look back on things that probably happened for a reason with "regrets" at least that's Ayesha's(my) opinion. I am one of those who believes everything that happens happens for a reason and there are no accidents just sad stories...
