It Could Have Been

I shouldn't be here
I shouldn't even exist.
You should have removed me
while there was still a chance.

You wouldn't be working
for minimum wage
doing something
a monkey could do.

He would have gone to college.
He would have a job
he actually likes,

And you would not be getting divorced
because you would never have been married.

And what of me?
Well,
I would be happy.
I would not exist
and that
is the greatest gift
I could ask for.
