We Could've Been...

We Could've Been...

A Poem by Dark Tower

We should have been perfect
But maybe neither of us really felt we deserved it
We could have been perfect
Weighed up our love
But the balance was worthless
Lying to ourselves
About how we don't deserve a chance
You point to God
Like our feelings are not part of his plans
But I fell too hard
In my mind we link hands every night and dance
And when it's over you disappear without another glance
I'm in dark staring at my shaking hands
Thinking to myself how much I'd give to hold you again
You are beyond perfection
In your arms I felt the presence of my best friend
And when you left
Our signals got crossed and the connection was dead
But there 's a lingering sting
And your voice is still my head

Your smile outweighs all
The most prominent feature that I can recall
And how I do miss being being responsible for their existence
Felt like God creating a star and watching it twinkling
I don't want you to cry
But you should regretful
You let our hope die
When we had so much potential
You are dream forever beyond my reach
But still so beautiful
That a part of me constantly remains asleep
