Empty without You and okay?

Because someday when I have it all
Everything that I dreamed of
I will still think about you (and us?)
About everything that could have been
When I chose to walk away 
From a future we could have made.

Sometimes our best decisions become our lifelong regrets
That one other way,  the other outcome
We can only wonder in thoughts 
About a world that could have been
Had we chosen to hold that hand
And instead of splitting apart 
Remained a team.
