Would I have been better off at 21?
If I had decided it was truly over at 21, what would have changed? In what ways could there have been a butterfly effect?
In what ways have I touched people?
In what ways would they have changed or remained the same if I had not been there?
Would the universe have put someone else in that place?
Am I a lone puzzle piece needed in any way?
I just wonder so much.
Is he better off no longer having the chance to become 22 or beyond 23 and so on?
Would he have been a father like we talked about?
Would he have gone back to school like we talked about?
Would he have learned what love was like, we talked about?
Oh, what happened to us in our 20s to destroy us like that?
I will spend the rest of my life wondering.
