If Only I Had Known

I'm lying on the floor,
Leaning up against the door,
The tears spilling from my face,
But I can't bring myself to even whisper,
Your name,
So long ago, but it's feels so close,
It could have been just the day before,
How could I have known?

I run my hands through my hair,
Imagining you were never there,
The whole time with me, you were here,
Just to make the dream all the more clear,
You're smell still lingers on my shirt,
That you cried on when you were so badly hurt,
If only I'd have known...

Sweat, blood and tears,
Just wanting to hold you dear,
Never wanting to let you go,
If only I had known!

I would have you stay here with me,
Where I could keep you safely,
Never again would you be suffering,
Wrapped in my arms and love so tightly,
But you slipped from my hold,
Now my arms are so cold,
Ice wrapped around my heart,
The real me I won't let anyone touch...
It wouldn't have happened if I had known.

If I had been there, if I'd have understood!
I could have prevented loosing you,
Now I've lost the both of us,
Not just you, but myself.
Gone are the days that I show the real me,
You took that away, when you decided to leave,
And now I lay on the floor,
Crying as I lean on the door,
I wouldn't be here,
If you had let me know.
This doesn't really have structure, but this is how it flowed. I put my hands on the keyboard and this flowed out, I barely even thought.

This is exactly how I feel, deep inside about everything that has happened to me and the people around me...
