My Story

She told me what I didn't know
When I needed to know
I realized why I can't be like them
She told me how it started
I realized why my path was that way
She told me how I came about
I realized I was rather fortunate
She told me how far she has come
I realized the depth of my mistake
Then I sat back
Took a clearer look
I realized I should never have gone that way
So I turned this way
And she smiled
And she winked
And she left
But I wasn't right
From the start
