It Should Have Been You Who Wrote This Poem

To tell the truth It should have been you Who authored this sad poem Instead of me Who clearly didn't see Your lies as they were told The heartache that I'm feeling Goes beyond the measure of this man The emptiness left inside my chest Should be yours, my dear, instead To tell the truth It should be you That's crying over me Instead of the reverse Held deep in this curse Of what's hard to believe The heartache that I'm feeling Goes beyond the measure of this man The emptiness left inside my chest Should be yours, my dear, instead If I had known It would read out in poem This pen you could have kept As I guard my heart Yes, even the aching part With what little I have left This has nothing to do with me.....Just an idea I had for something a little different
