Why

This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears I shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that I have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
