I wish you would have told me

by ImTheGirl   Jun 26, 2018


I wish you would have told me first loves aren’t forever
And that one day my heart would break
That it was okay to love and move on
You learn from life, there are no mistakes

I wish you would have told me to put myself first
Have fun but don’t lose who you are
Take risks and love hard, be faithful
It’s okay if love leaves you with a scar

I wish you would have told me that promises are different
They’re different when you’re in love
When the relationship is over, promises don’t exist
And there’s simply nothing to speak of

I wish you would have told me that even though he said he’d marry me
It was okay to cry when he walked away
That I was still strong and as beautiful as ever
And that I didn’t have to beg true love to stay

I wish you would have told me that I would love again
That it would be hard, but not impossible to do
That I could try and not be afraid of failing
That eventually the right guy would come through

    If only our life's and our lives were written for us we'd be able to oversee our heartaches and our mistakes but would it change the good things too??
