Nick Ruff Poet Rhyme

What Could Have Been

I wish that I had always been
The only one to hold your heart,
And yet I had to let you fly,
With wings so new they’d barely dried

I wish I could have been your sun,
And warmed your darkest days with light;
I wish I could have been the hand
That calmed the storms you kept inside

I wish I could have built my life
With you much sooner than I did;
I wish you could have been my wife,
And that your children were my kids.
