Maybe if I were to be born in another life I would be more accomplished

Daughter of some rich CEO jackass

Or maybe I would have been born a modest merchant in the BCE era

Maybe I would be born in the future and have a chip implanted into my brain so I wouldn’t have to think these awful thoughts anymore

Or maybe I could have used this life better

Not messed everything up

Not dated all the wrong people and said all the wrong things to the wrong people

And maybe I would not have waited so long to say the right things to the right people

Maybe if I were born in another life I wouldn’t be writing these depressing poems trying to grasp onto something that is not there
