If Only...

If only you knew

If only you knew

The pain I went threw

Just to know you

If only you knew

The time I spent

Trying to know who you were

If only you knew

What I wanted to say

But was too shy to try

If only you knew

Maybe things could of been different

But hey maybe it’s better you never knew

    "If only you knew The pain I went threw Just to know you" This resonates very deeply. Love this poem. A profound exploration of "shoulda coulda woulda"
