Could Have Been

it could have been so nice
but like every relationship it stood at the side of a dice
you never know if it will work or fail
ours did fall of the edge

it could have been so wonderful
but like every relationship it was like riding a bull
you never know if it will work or fail
we did fall of his back

it could have been so glittery
but like every relationship it was like aiming while you are jittery
you never know if it will work or fail
ours was a shoot off target

it could have been so shiny
but like every relationship it was like a star that can stay or fall and end tiny
you never know if it will work or fail
we hit the ground

it could have been so nice...but it isn't
