If only I had been there

I could have stopped it

I could have done something

I could have saved them

These are the thoughts I live with

Constantly in the back of my mind

Shattering my heart slowly

Crack by little crack

I try not to think of it

But I can never totally forget

They meant the world to me

And now they are gone

If only I could have given a proper goodbye

If only I had known

I would have done things differently

They would have known how I love them so

I always try to remember

That it was not my fault

I could not have changed anything

Nothing could have been done

I cannot escape the feeling though

I wish I could at least have said goodbye

Told them I loved them

And that life would be terrible without them

Instead

I get stuck with these regrets

Always wondering what if

I will have to live with this

For the rest of my life

So as usual I am having a problem coming up with names, I don't know what to call this poem; if you have an idea for the title leave a comment and if I like it I will use it and give you a shout out for making it. Anyways, I didn't write this about anyone specific which is why I used words like 'they' and 'them'. I wrote this so that anyone who has gone through the loss of a loved one can understand the feeling. This poem can have so many meanings. Take this however you want. I hope you all can find a way to relate to it. Enjoy!
