What you could have had...
by Shandra Lee Alvarado
Every night when I'm alone
I just break down and cry
I can only think of "him"
And I slowly go out of my mind-
When I see him with his new girlfriend
He has a smile on his face
He tells her that he loves her
And no one can take her place-
He'll have her arms around her
And he'll quickly glance my way
He thinks he has me figured out...
But games I will not play.
Last week he told me how special I was
The race to his heart I had won
I know he's said this to a thousand girls...
I just happened to be a thousand and one
Why couldn't I keep hold of him?
I would have taken care of all his needs
Touching him tenderly-
Satisfying all his dreams
Reality seems just beyond my hold
I need to learn the ways...
Of loving - But letting go
