If Thing Were Different

If things were different it wouldn't be the same; A just sense of peace and no place just for blame. It’s hard to imagine that things could ever change; So many broken pieces unable to arrange. A checkered past, that was riddled with guilt. Dried up a flower, too late to watch wilt. Without action by a master of disguise; There may never have been a you and an I... A closed mind kept shut and hidden inside. Slowly but surely a love left and died. This cloak concealed truth to not remove. A childish boy with something not to prove. Many days came late and several dollars same short. If we took back the past, we'd regret much, much more. In light of the present, we reflect upon the past. No time need you dwell, skinny, it is all over fast. Action, reaction and in the blink of an eye, I wonder what it'd be like between you and I? It is a shame what has become. I must admit. I wonder what it would be like if things were different? -Ironic Zinc 2013 Edit on 6-6-16-
