Overread at Table 4: Things You Can Never Take Back.

They say there are things you can never take back.
Missed opportunities are one of those things.

More than the open hand slap.
More than the harsh word.
More than the overturned table or the broken window.

It is the path not taken.
It is the word never said.
It is the kindness never expressed.
It was the chance to grab the tail end of that shirt

Just before watching it disappear forever
into the endless

abyss.
