Maybe Said Too Late

Maybe said too late
What the hell was I doing, that I don't even know.
My biggest mistake in this world ever, was letting you go.
I don't know what I was thinking,but I know now it was my biggest regret.
And the more I think about it,every single second I get more upset.
Things would have been so different if I had I just picked up the phone.
You and I wouldn't be this way had I never left you alone.
I messed up the most I think I ever did.
So broken up inside now knowing I caused you to lose your kid.
There's no apology I could ever make to right that wrong.
I'm so sorry, and I'm so sorry that it took me this long.
So twisted inside, my mind is raging tearing itself apart.
Wish I wouldn't have listened to to my head, instead I should have listened to my heart.
Should have done all this from the very start.
Maybe then I wouldn't be here now,wondering how.
Instead, I lay in my bed, filled with dread with thoughts that won't leave my head.
There's nothing I could say, to take away, your dismay, so awake at night I lay, and pray, that I could end your pain one day.
Will that ever happen..... That's really hard to say.
I just pray you'll be able to accept this apology.
And know from the bottom of my soul, that I'm truly sorry.
I wasn't around to say this to you then on that date.
But I say this to you now, but maybe said to late.
