Had I Known
Would you have remained,
had you known;
Would you have love me
if I was not your own?
I do not believe, though it remains unknown,
but I am yours truly
yet you deny me.
Had you known I was the seeds
you planted with your bare hands,
you would've still remained,
not belonging to me
because you have plenty opposite of me.
Was it out of love, DEAR
in which you traded me for an empty soul
to a world without heart?
Your beating of harsh words
still lingers inside, but
you do not care-- why should you?
Had I known the damage,
would I've still deafened to the warning signs;
would've love continue to blind me from the evidence
had I known then what I know now!?
