The Other Option

In the dance of personal priorities,
Apologies echo with a hollow tone,
An option, not a choice, left to roam, Imagination's whispers, truth or lies unknown?

Treated like a passing thought, a notion,
Was it real or just mind’s devotion?
Dreams entangled in the web of perception, Reality’s mirror, a complex reflection.

Choices like notes in a silent song,
Regrets murmur, a melody gone wrong.
Shifting priorities in life's grand play,
Life lessons learned, a hard way.

Mirror, mirror, reflection unclear,
Emotions tangled, making me tear.
Self-reflection in a fractured mirror,
Truths and lies, becoming clearer.

Apologies linger, a fragile thread,
A puzzle of words, where sincerity fled.
What's the truth in this intricate scheme?
In the theater of life, a recurring theme.
