I stare into the night, lost in my thoughts,
Wondering about all the what ifs and could’ves.
My mind runs through endless cycles,
Of the dreams I had and the chances I missed.

I regret so many things, it’s overwhelming,
Each mistake like a knife in my heart.
I try to push forward, but I’m constantly held back,
Trapped in this endless cycle of regret.

What if I had taken that leap of faith,
Or chased after the dreams that filled my head?
What if I had made different choices,
Would I be happier now instead?

I can’t change the past, I know that’s true,
But the what ifs and regret haunt me still.
I try to move on, to start anew,
But the cycle continues, a never-ending uphill.

So here I am, lost in my thoughts once more,
Wondering if I’ll ever break free.
From the chains of regret and what ifs,
And finally live the life meant for me.
