If Only/by:Haunted Lunacy

If only I had been good enough

for the one who swore to love me,

to hold my hand for better or worse

and place no one above me,

to walk with me side by side

no matter what the cost,

to comfort me when I was sad,

and felt confused and lost,

but time was cruel and hearts 

grew cold as bitterness prevailed,

and lips that swore to love each

other did narrate the darkest tale.

So with trembling hearts and silent

tears we both just walked away,

if only I had been good enough ,

but I wasn’t, no, not today.
