Photographs In My Mind
I work through the photographs in my mind
Thinking of how we got here today, what steps did we take
All the choices that were offered, then balked, ones taken just by chance
This is how we ended up here, in our current time and place, alone within
ourselves
Looking beyond the here and now to another place set deeper
I tend to dwell on choices past upon that may have held more promise
These thoughts I know are but a waste of time because what was, has been
And living in a world of missed opportunities, might drive one insane
So now I focus my thoughts to the road ahead, to see what the future holds
My vision is blurry for I am not very good at this; I haven’t done it in sometime
The most important thing of all is that I have a future now, something I was
without
And with that new found future, I will continue on my path, whatever that may be
