Thinking about how it should have been
Regrets are spread across the past
Trading in people who mattered
For one unforgiving mistake
This person I have become
Both roads would have lead to here and now
Unfortunately the path I followed
I have the memories stored
And the thoughts of the ones that could have been
Part of me hoping they understand
Who couldn’t make choices
Or let my own voice be heard
When I went down that path
Stuck until I overrode it
Knowing I wasn’t the only one
Who got hurt in the process
Part of my life was taken away
A part I will never get back
Will always bare the scar
That will have the memories underneath
No matter where life takes me
