If Only....

If only I could be, your everything.

 

If only I could be, the one.

 

If only I could make you love me.

 

If only I could have seen,

 

What It was that I was doing to you.

 

If only that I knew,

 

that pushing you away,

 

would only break my heart,

 

If only I had said I love you,

 

before you walked away.

 

Then maybe,

 

I would have been your everything,

 

instead I am nothing,

 

and all I have is......

 

 

IF ONLY

 

 

Author's Note

THIS IS A RESTORE..... AND THIS IS ONLY FICTIONAL NOT WHAT I REALLY FEEL

Reviews

[Chris Zahar]

Unfortunately, it's not fiction for me and the way you've captured every emotion that I feel so perfectly really makes me wonder. I almost cried reading this and I'm going to send it to the person whom I would've dedicated it to, had I written it.

[Dezaraye]

The longing and frustration come through your words perfectly. This is such a sad and lonely place to be. You've described it so well.

[Amor-de-angel]

A small word that has such bit meanings,A great write.

[Kim Kruger]

I think sometimes whether by accident or purposely there are those who take one's writing literally and assume they are talking about themselves. The words in this message do speak to love lost by somebody, somewhere, sometime. Very strong write.

[Nick Erickson]

IF - the middle word in life.
Very good flow and imagery in this one.
I'm glad it's just fiction.

[Papillion]

You are able to capture so much eomtion in your writing....I am gald its only fiction.

[Gary H]

Fictional or not, there has to be many times in everyones lives where we arrive at a point when 'If only' becomes a major point. Looking at various the therapist remedies, they always suggest to identify your past points of decision making, learn to live with them, move on in life and then leave them in the past. All easier said than done.

I think this is a good poem to write just before Christmas as many will be reflecting back on the past at this time of year - especially for those they have lost.

[Autumn Dawn Gorny]

Hind sight is 20/20. You can feel the desperation in every word. Great write.

[Bear]

good work, took me back 20 years to the after of a relationship and the poem I wrote very similar to your "If Only". Enjoyed your words very much!

[nokturnal]

Very sad poem very well written especially since you are happy right now. That makes you a very good writer to me being that you can write something so heartbreaking while so happy. Good Job
