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
