If Only

If only you could see inot my heart,
And feel my pains.
If only you could read the lines in my soul.
Then you'd see,
The hurt and pain that you cause me.

I want to give up,
I try to survive,
But still my love is gone.

If only I could have seen the future,
Life would have been better.
I would have never loved,
I would not have let myself be tempted,
I should have closed my eyes,
I should have blocked it out.

If only I did,
If only I listened to what you said,
If only I tried to stay alive,
If only I could have loved,
If only I could live again,
If only...

Hey Angel... well first of all I'm not Michele, my name is CristiĆ”n  lol.
I liked your poem a lot, I don't know why I liked it, it has something, I read it twice but I can't figure out what it is... it has some kind of mistery, maybe even darkness. Why don't you send me an email... this time to my email lol mad_bones@hotmail.com to explain the background of this poem. I'm very intrigued about it. And maybe I could help if there's something wrong.
Well, bye and hope to see you soon,
Your friend,

something about your poem just draws me to it, probably because what you are saying, feels like what I am going through right now.Well great poem, keep writing!!

Much Luv,
Priscilla

Lots of people go through "if only"'s.  I hope if this is how you're feeling that you feel better soon.  Anyway, I like the poem a lot  < !signature-->

You know........the If only problems suck. But you know what i think sucks more..... The Coulda beens.......and especially the Shoulda beens....oh and dont forget the maybe-coulda-possibly's.... bad bad all bad!

I thought that this was an amazing poem. It really described a lot of what i've been feeling lately as you know. Excellent poem..I loved it!

"If only I could have seen the future,
Life would have been better.
I would have never loved"

I loved that part!!

Good poem... I too hate the 'if only' parts of our lives.... The road not taken.... and such. But all things happen for a reason, he/she's tought you a lesson... you've learned by experience, that is soooo important to have! (I'm assuming it's a he, but ya never know)
Kudos!- Jenn
