The Life That Could Have Been

She looks at the girl that stands in the mirror She is filled with so much agony and fear. When thinking of her dream life, it couldn’t be a sin Of thinking of life and how it could have been. She knows she could have it all and more If her life could seem more like a life and less like a chore. Her life could have the beauty of colors like a rainbow If only it didn’t make her always feel so low. “Why can’t wishes come true?” she thinks as she falls to the floor and sinks into the pain her life has brought and all that life has ever taught that life can be unfair and that she knows it and how she always acts never shows it. As she looks back into her reflection She sees the girl with a look of affection. The girl looks back and says, “It will be okay If you will just hold on for one more day.”
