Focusing On What?

Wanting badly or focusing on the past sadly
Trying to fill a void that might not exist
Life twists and turns are distractions
From what I unknowingly try to persist

A path that has had many dead ends
A heart that has had hopes crushed
With a twist of fate the road bends
Once untouchable, forced to blush

As I reach out again I find it hard to relate
Difficult with the past handed down
I try hard to understand while coping with fate
Something so promising can vanish without sound
