Orpheus Entranced the Wild Beasts

Sometimes I like to Day Dream that I am so much more than I am

I like to imagine I made different decisions, different choices

What if I asked out the one that got away? What if I studied something different in school?

What if I tried harder? What if I went a little easier?

But these dreams, these what ifs

Are just little white lies I tell myself

Avalanching my brain into thinking any thing I would have done differently

Would have innately been better.

Please remember

It’s okay to dream. It’s okay to wish. It’s okay to hope.

But I know from experience you can’t dwell in the imaginary.

The choices we make are made.

There is no proof, no promise, no guarantee

Anything else would be better.

Live in your truth.
Wake up from your Day Dream, and enjoy you Day
