If Only...

by Lauren   Apr 9, 2005


If only I hadn't walked away,
when you needed me the most,
If only I had trusted you,
to be my special host.
If only I had the strength,
to come over and say goodbye,
If only I had the courage,
to turn around and ask you why.
If only I could go back in time,
and explain to you how I felt,
If only I could've glanced at the cards,
all the jokers I had been dealt.
If only you would've stayed,
all you've left is pain,
I think of you every day now,
and why you played this game.
I'm sorry for what you've been through,
And the things yet to come,
but the more I start to miss you,
the more I become so numb.

(About 2 best friends, one of them is being raped and beaten by their father and runs away and never see their other friend again.)
