My Life
The places I've been… The things I've seen… It's as if Yasmin has seen what I've been through. I remember it all. As if it were yesterday. I wish it could have been different. But I have Yasmin. And my family. Even if it was not the family I had dreamed of when I was younger.
I wish I had told him to come with me. Or I had gone with him. But then I wouldn't have had the life I had. I can't even bear to think his name. All I fell is pain for the life I could have lead. And yet life has surprised me yet again with what it can do. It's funny how you can dream for years and then it can all be ruined in a second. But then something else comes out of it. I will never know what might have happened if he had lived.
Maybe I would never have ended up in Sheffield. Or maybe I would have. Who knows? All I know is the life I have been given. And I am content with it.
