What Could Have Been

Thu, 05/15/2014 - 10:20 -- kellham

Desperate to know, what could have been, what used to be
Dying to know what you hear, what you see.
  I am separate from the world, my mind is a mess and you can't handle that,
You had this look in your eyes, and instead of a hug, you gave my back a pat.
  You said goodbye, I thought you were a friend,
You couldn't handle the pain I feel, so I guess this is the end.
  You used be the only one who would understand
You were the one, when I was in trouble, to offer a helping hand.
   I don't know what I will do without you, maybe its for the best,
I cant help but wonder, if this is just another life test.
  I don't understand why you are going, let me inside you mind,
I want to know what you are thinking, why you are so angry and unkind.
  I am tired of crying, crying for what might have been, what used to be,
I can't look towards the future because its only you that my eyes want to see.
