"If I'd only been there"



If I'd only been there


when you were 18
or 25 or 12 or 45.

I get you now,
slightly jaded,
older, with hair graying
at the temples,
and gone on top.

I wish we'd spent
our lives together.

But, then we'd
take each other
for granted, no doubt.

I don't want that.

I never want that.
