What Could Have Been

I miss us
and what we could have been
lost somewhere
between
was and when
and the way I held you at night
tight against your naked skin
soft as angel wings
and more beautiful than all my dreams
you are still my sweetest everything
but my eyes fill with tears
realizing my greatest fears
that we have reached an ending
before we even got to the beginning
I miss us
and what we could have been
I can only wish now
that we will someday have the chance
to start over once again
