It Was Me

You were taken to soon. Ripped away from us. You knew it was our final goodbye. But the truth was hidden. With a tear in your eye, There was one last goodnight hug. I wiped away the tear, Then smiled and walked away. By the time of the morning light It was already too late. You were gone and to a better place. Never knew of your acknowledged your pain. Of your suffering Sometimes I wonder, "If I only cared more Would you still be here? If I only hurt less, Would you still be here?" I'd deny it if I could. But inside we both know, I am the reason You went away.
