Never Again

There was a time where I
Found delight
In imagining a future
Of happiness with others and
with Someone to love me.
And yet, it wasn't real delight
I just dreamed and danced in the
"What could have been"
Fake conversations and
day-dreams
Never fulfilled my need for something, Someone else

Once discovering this selfishness
I decided to "move on"
Which of course led to more What could have been's
Invading my heart
for a short while,
Then leaving without
Looking back

"Never again!" I shout.
Never again will I have an
Empty heart from
something not real.
But the voices, oh the voices,
They never ceased
"What could have been" rings in my ears as I am trapped in a
Spiraling storm
"Never again!" I shout through
the raging wind.
But the storm never stops.

What could have been's
Continue pushing in

And yet again,
I'm trapped.
