Almost

A face I recognise vaguely
An image swimming from the past
A fleeting, brief encounter
Clinging to a moment that can never last
Voices muffled in the distance
Words I struggle to hear
Conversations to which I am not party
Meanings that remain unclear
A dream I failed to cling to
Hopes I have banished and feared
Opportunities I walked away from
Things that I will regret for years
A life I am not living
A story that remains untold
A path I can never follow
Leaving me here; isolated and cold
