Talking to The Mirror

I could have been somebody
Laughable lament
Nonsensical nostalgia
At nineteen
Wondering what could have been
Had I held out and struggled

I had excuses though,
No excuses
Everything was set

Such an unsettled inner
Had me thinner though
For a period
Many that were parallel
With peace
But with permeable parameters
Osmosis of the focus shifting
Impulses passing thicker pulses

So you see I couldn't have had it
Trying wouldn't hurt
What if it did?
I'll never know
Will I ever know
I know that I could have
Why wouldn't I strive
I knew better than any the prize
Perhaps it skewed my eyes
