Foggy View

Foggy View

Foggy
view.
Haze of
potentiality.
Possibility.
Lives
never
lived.
Paths
not
chosen.
Countless
decisions
never
made.
Infinite
potential.
Places
never
seen.
Ghosts
of what
might
have
been.
Lovers
never
met.
Children
never
known.
Friendships
unfulfilled.
Futures
that will
never be.
Options
unexplored.
Experiences
unevolved.
Looking
back.
Wonder
where I’d
be today,
had I gone
a different
way.

Fascinating poem that highlights "what if" questions that haunt us.  Very true that our timeline had potential to go in many different directions.   Also see your poems on AP (I'm Tomcatx2021 on that site).

Hi John,
what if? 
such a difficult thought, we all can think if we'd done things differently, would our lives be different?....it is a bit foggy..isn't it?? 
lots of questions, we can only surmise
Really thought provoking
Enjoyed

Often I think this of people who've died in wars or disasters, especially the young...whole lines of potential wiped out in an instant x
