Reading majic's journal

A poem about our path in life. How different would life be if you could travel down a path that was not meant for you?

life is but a path
between another
and side by side
a place we can never know

look forward young man
never look back
take a step and learn from it
and gather self respect

unique am I
and equal likewise
and something different from myself
and somewhat of a mess

what if I
could take a path
meant for someone else
and walk down it
infinite
and trick it nonetheless

how different
would my life become
how different
would I be
how quickly could I forget
what yesterday
I used to be?
