Visions

 

Misty visions.

Visions

of what

might 

have been.

Foggy horizons,

futures

that will

never be.

Visions

of people 

that might

have been,

that I’ll

never meet.

Places that

I’ll never see.

Potentiality 

that never was!

Decisions made

paths traversed 

that never were.

In a quantum 

haze we live.

Potential vibrates 

all around.

Alternate worlds

never to be

explored.

In my dreams

I’ve seen a

few.

All the people 

I never knew.

I wonder where

I’d be today

if I chose

to go a 

different way.
