Am I Losing Tomorrow?
It was today that I took notice
Of a void, there, in my view
What had I done? What has happened?
Please tell me, this cannot be true!
Words were placed, to not return.
Thoughts expressed, though not so clear.
People read, thinking the worst,
Truth be known, t’is I, with fear.
Should I remain, so tortured, here?
The hopes within, burning brightly,
Growing fervently deep in my soul.
To take things back, I wish I could now,
But things were said. I lost control.
It is with sorrow I approach you,
Seeking forgiveness, setting free.
My mind had lagged behind my words
What was said, just wasn’t me.
Can you forgive, I beg of thee?
