Should've... Would've... Could've...


The biggest struggle...
The things I couldn't juggle.
The emotions that lingered,
The words I hindered.

The thoughts were forced,
Memories reinforced,
The root of all this pain,
Promise, I'll never disdain.

I was retrained...
To let you know,
To let it show.
For my Ego's bigger,
And doubts are stronger.

I'm at a lost,
Lost for words utmost.
Watching you,
Thinking of you...

The you with me back then
The 'us' we didn't gain.
The 'us' within my grasp
The 'us' that makes me gasp.

The should'ves,
The would'ves,
The 'could've beens.'
That would never be 'have beens.'

Those undefined 'whats'
Those unraveled 'whys'
The unknown 'hows'
The exciting 'what ifs'

All now gone.
Gone in a dawn.
Lost in a blow,
Busted all its glow.

Now back in that corner,
In the space for loners.
That place feels bigger,
It's where I started over.

No one should be closer,
For I'll never be a keeper.
Not even bitter,
Just gotta be stronger...
Gotta be the 'stronger loner'
