Ever Wonder Why?

Ever wonder why?

You can see something so vivid when looking backward.
When looking ahead?  Thick as pea soup. 

It's the reflective time of year.  And well, I'm reflecting.
It's a slippery slope, but one that I frequent.
I guess I find the danger of memory entertaining.

Sometimes I believe I'm the most gullible woman to have ever tried to love.
Scoffing at the memories of the lies I believed. 
Shaking my head in awe of being the last to know.
Strange to live that cliche.

Have you pondered a different life?
Happy to daydream?
Happier still to experience.

Fearful for a life alone, but more
Fear of a life shared.

Time to live my rut.  Time to lay in the bed I've made.  Time to live.
