Of Moments Passed

Sometimes I think of what could have been
If I had a little more courage
Asked the questions
Took the action
Would things be what could have been?

Sometimes I think of what should have been
If I had not been so silly
Making the mistakes I made
Would things be what should have been?

Would I have landed the role of lead actor in the movie of your life?
Instead of being a prop
Silently watching you glide by

...

Now I think of what will be
Like J.K Rowling and her Harry Potter
What started out as a prophecy
Will lead to an adventure of a lifetime
Though it may be filled with pain and tragedy
There will be moments of triumph and bliss
And finally ...
A well-deserved happy ending
With a standing ovation
As a tribute of a movie brilliantly directed
The actors played their part
The supporting actors perfected their lines

I am satisfied with being a prop
Honored being the lead supporter
Exhilarated to be cast as the lead actor

In the movie of your life

And for how our stories connected
I thank you
And am glad that it connected somehow
Somehow

Though the moments may have passed
It was linked

Moments passed
Can only be an eternal memory

For the future anticipated
Is what holds
