Regrets

I often wish I'd met you
just walking in the park
while still in our youth long ago.

Dreams of all the could have been
and all the things
that might not have been
if we had just been friends.

How different life would have been
if I had a friend where
total trust could exist
Dreams of the life ahead to share
talking .learning and sharing together
whatever life held for us.

Dreams of all the could have been
and all the things that might not have been
If we had just been friends.

Now we'd know each other
better than friends
knowing by a glance
the other's heart.

Seeing beyond the surface
to the Ray of Colors below
Glowing with acceptance
tolerance and peace.

Dreams of all the could have been
and all the things that might not have been
If we had just been friends.

Years would go by
Smiles, comfort, love
will always remain
when time comes to part
we'll still be best of friends
until we meet again
walking in the park.

Dreams of all the could have been
and all the things that might not have been
If we had just been friends.
