it would've been easier
you would never have
to shed a single tear,
nor live in constant fear,
we would never have
to bend till we break
or try till we ache
when i say i'm fine
i would've meant
every littlest word
yeah you won't even
be too listless, not too bored
no more lies
no lingering goodbyes
your smile might even reach your eyes
i won't have to pretend that i am cool
we no longer would be fools
i could breathe easy
knowing you would always
stay here with me. . .

if love were enough. . .

sorry, I will never be enough. . .
