Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda

All of the should haves, could haves, and would haves.

The shoulda, coulda, woulda is haunting my restless days that turn into night,

We are the should have, could have, would haves,

I should have, could have, almost would have you here with me,

You should have, could have, not walked away and left me alone with a would have,

We should have worked out,

Could have worked out,

Would have worked out if you had just not closed yourself off,

I should have never started this sick path,

I could have just looked the other way and walked away,

I would have if I had just known,

You should have been here to see me through my pain,

You could have been here to hold my hand as things got that much harder,

You would have if I just hadn't pushed away so hard, so quick, so much,

We should have, could have, would have fallen deeply in love,

What did you honestly accomplish by running away with my heart?

I should have, could have, would have known better if you hadn't melted my thoughts away with one look,

You should have, could have, would have had the good sense to never even look,

We should have at least a friend,

Could have had a confidant,

Would have had someone to try to guide you down the right path,

Maybe I should have known that my pushing you to be something was me pushing you away,

I could have known that you were drifting away from what used to be us,

I would have known everything if I had only wanted to see what was there, staring me straight in the face, head on, ready to break my already broken self,

You should have been honest, not used me for something,

You could have just saved me becoming this thing that I now am,

You would have just stopped me from finding something that I wish I had never found, love, comapssion, understanding, faith in others, anything and everything that you showed me, damn you,

We should have not lasted that long I suppose,

We could have not lasted at all,

We would have not lasted one bit,

Who am I kidding,

I would have stopped looking if you would have had faith in me,

You could have just trusted me to come back,

You should have just taken me back.
