Post 972: If You Didn't Hit Send (3/31/25)

If You Didn't Hit Send (3/31/25 c, w)

Here i stand in the wake

The wake of my shattered heart's desolation

Trying so hard to remember then

But i can't remember when

When there still was an ember of hope

Left in the empty shell

That is all that is left of me

Drowning in you and me

Thought you'd be the lifeguard that would rescue me

But just you held me under

Until there was no escape that i could see

If you didn't hit send

We could have had a new beginning

Instead of a bitter, bitter end

i lost my heart to my best friend

Could everything, everything been different

If you didn't hit send

i know, know that it is just pretend

Imagining what, what could have been

If everything could have gone right

If i still had you, you in my life

The illusion, it seems

Was the only thing sustaining me

But the day has long since faded into the night

The darkness, the darkness is all i'll ever see

If you didn't hit send

We could have had a new beginning

Instead of a bitter, bitter end

i lost my heart to my best friend

Could everything, everything been different

If you didn't hit send

Imagining i could have had castles of gold

Instead of this dungeon so, so cold

Locked away with what will never be

All that ever mattered to me

Take away so callously

We could have had unicorns galore

Instead of the wolves perpetually at my door

If only some distant time and place

Could have been save by your grace

If only, only

If you didn't hit send

We could have had a new beginning

Instead of a bitter, bitter end

i lost my heart to my best friend

Could everything, everything been different

If you didn't hit send
