Whose Fault?

The lemonade spilt

whilst I took a nap. 

Let me rephrase that. 

My lemonade spilt

whilst I dreamt. 


Who was responsible for it?

The loving one, 

who made it? 

The careful one, 

who put it on the table? 

Or the one whose clumsy elbow hit the glass? 

Or was it me


I could have had a fresh lemonade

And wouldn't have to clean the mess


If I wouldn't have slept through. 


If I wouldn't had 

I could have 

And if I could have

I wouldn't have


Or maybe if I would have

This piece weren't written. 


So I settled for water instead.
