If I Was Dead, If I Had Died

If you were dead,
If you had died,
I seem to know,
That I'd have cried.

I'd weep your name,
Before I slept,
And dream of promises,
I never kept.

My heart would break,
My wits would shatter,
My features distorted,
My dreams would scatter.

You'd fill my thoughts,
You'd fill my dreams,
Emotions bursting,
At the seams.

Never the same,
I wouldn't forget,
I'd savor each memory,
And live with regret.

If I was dead,
If I had died,
I just don't know,
If you'd have cried.

You'd move on,
Forget me now,
Savor the memories,
Retract somehow.

You'd dream of days,
We'd had together,
But live the future,
Away forever.

We'd never be together,
In thoughts or in mind,
I thought we were special;
One of a kind.

Our memories fade,
They give us false hope,
A sense of reminding,
A new way to cope.

If I was dead,
If I had died,
I don't believe,
That you'd have cried.

I love this, Keri! ^^

Thank you both.

Eek, Keri, awesome job. :3 Like Lucky said, it's really relatable.
