Did You Never?
Did you never regret being afraid? Of reaching out for what you wanted most in life? I do.
I don't know when I decided not to try for my heart's desire, but only now realize that I settled for less than what I truly wanted.
I know he was out of my league. I know that I could never measure up to the women he has had in his life. I know he deserved more than what I could offer him. That didn't stop me from trying to make him see me differently.
I started seeing other men, but they all fell short of what I expected.
I noticed that he had changed, but never found the courage to ask him why he had changed.
Then, I found someone else. I pushed my desire for him to the back of my mind and settled for second best. And died inside when he offered his congratulations.
I made my decision and now I face my regrets.
