The world is filled with missed opportunities,
blurred faces,
untravelled places,
all unfortunate cases.

The world is filled with missed opportunities,
conversations you don't start,
time you spent apart,
you have to be smart.

The world is filled with missed opportunities,
strangers you pass on the street are full of could be's,
could be conversations,
could be emotions,
could be experiences,
Never will be.

The world is filled with missed opportunities,
stories you don't share,
things you don't dare,
everywhere.

Everyone is plagued by demons of unwillingness,
followed by shadows of could be people,
haunted by mistakes,
not of what they did do,
but of what they didn't do.

The world is filled with missed opportunities.
