Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda

i couldve had you for a lifetime
i wouldve always cared
i shouldve stuffed my head
with the memories we shared.
 i couldve dreamt of you
and your warm embrace
i couldve left with you
out of this wretched place.
 i wouldve run way
just to be with you
i wouldve painted your skie
into a brighter shade or hue.
 i shouldve loved you more
while you were in my arms
i shouldve been nicer
before ever causing this harm.
 but couldve will fade
wouldve will too
shouldve has gone
away with you.
