'could'Ve Been
‘Could’ve Been
It could have been us
Celebrating 10th month’s anniversary;
Not that it’s a complaint,
But a reminder in a bragging tone.
It could have been us
Laying on a 2m hostel single bed;
Fighting for one pillow,
In a cold night of July.
It could have been us
Playing basketball Sunday evening;
On a rough outdoor court,
With rules of our own.
It could have been us
Exchanging jerseys on sun dawn;
Watching the sunset,
Talking dirty in love language.
It could have been us
If not for your boldness;
That intimidates my manhood,
Pushing me into loving a stranger.
