In hindsight

You never truly grasp what you had 

Until it\'s lost, you\'re left with past

Imperfections and all, it was yours

A sense of rightness that transcended flaws 

There was always room for growth 

For effort and commitment to show

But instead of nurturing, you let it fade

And now, the what-if\'s forever linger and shade

No regrets for the time you shared

For in it\'s magic, your hearts were bared

Yet, longing for a different end

Aches within, a wound that won\'t mend

The unknown beckons a daunting test

A future without what once felt best 

Memories of what could\'ve been 

Now taunt, a bittersweet refrain
