“I wish I would’ve told you.” Poetry or prose! Don’t forget to @ me!
Too Late Now
I wish I would've told you
That I only went along with it
Because I didn't set standards back then
For whom I'd call a friend
I wish I would've told you
That I was too weak to intervene
That now, I would've put an end
To their torturous regime
I wish I would've told you
That it shattered my soul
To see the people I knew
Hurt someone I didn't
I wish I would've told you
That things will get better
That one day they'll grow up
That one day they'll feel guilt
I wish I would've told you
That I'll stand up to them, for you
But all I told you was
"It's just a prank"
And now I can't tell you anything.
