What If I Can't Make You Happy?

Folder: 
Goodbye Poems

What if I cannot make you happy

What if we are together and you still hurt the same

You will tell me not to worry

Promise me I am not to blame

but I went through that once before

Sat back and watched you fall apart

and when the damage was all over

You said it was not my fault

but what if I would have tried

would things have gone differently

Would you be better finally



What if I cannot make you happy

What if in the long run you stil cry and nothing is right

Would you hold onto me ever more tightly

or would you let go and would out of my life



What if I cannot make you happy

What if I only let you down

We have been down this road before

When pain hits your heart you run for the door

But what about this time



What if I promise to make you happy

but cannot follow through

Would you stick around knowing no one is perfect

or would you resent me for ruining everything

If I could not make you happy would you stay

Or would you do what you always do and run away
