Because There Wasn't Any 'Ifs' Between Us

Because there wasn't any 'ifs' between us,
The 'we' that had been thought of as love...
Has lost all of our could be's empty of feeling.
To something not wished to be remembered.

And so much of our time had been spent,
Trying to convince ourselves...
With the giving of more of a nothingness,
We would find something there we never had.
