If only - A poem

Time for another poem. I know, it's been a while. This one was written a few years ago. Enjoy.


If only
Sometimes we say if only
Like we really want to know
If life would be so changed
If done different years ago

If only I’d studied harder
I would have passed that test
If only I’d ran faster
And beaten all the rest

If only I had taken time
To get to know you better
If only I had called you
Or written you a letter

If only we had talked
A little more each day
I would not have felt so empty
When you suddenly went away

If only we were not
In such a hurry to live
If only we opened our hearts
We’d have more love to give
