Me In True Colors (Unpoetic)

I ponder over and over again
on moments which became milestones
but for which
I wouldn't have been
Me

Looking back I see
Cris-cross roads
some traveled more, some less,
which got me
Here

I am left with reminisces
of regrets, promises, opportunities, failures,
I look at them as a collage
in shades and hues of
Me

A look in the mirror
shows me in true colors
I shrug, I smile
realizing I am just an
Amateur

I step aside
to let it all pass
like water under the bridge
to start all over from
Scratch

Thanks Teddy for reading and your comment. The title itself mentions that it is unpoetic because I know I am just an amateur.
