My Last Song

If this were my last song,
That ever flowed from my pen.
I want you all to know-
What could have been,
If I could do it all again.
I would have been a better man,
Smarter and wiser than I am,
I would have seen the mistakes,
Before I made them,
And made the choices-
I should have made.
I would have been better to all,
I would have seen it all,
The beauty in everyone,
Instead of all the faults-
Which reflected my own self thoughts.
I wouldn't have drowned myself,
In the river if high times.
I wouldn't have given up,
I wouldn't have to write this song,
Saying that I'm sorry,
For the pain that I have given.
Only crying from my heart,
Wanting only to be forgiven.
