My Beat Up Song

I should have I wish I had I could have But I didn’t. My beat up song. I should have I wish I had I could have But I didn’t. My beat up song. The one I began singing After my mother passed. I should have visited her more often. I wish I had known she was dying. I could have been there for her. But I didn’t know, and I was not there. My beat up song.

Comes a time when we have to put all the "woulda-coulda-shoulda" stuff behind us. We can never change the past, so we need to live with it or dismiss it. Most of the crap I tend to dismiss.

I do not spend any time on it now, but there was a time.
