Save You Two

Going back in time to save you two
For almost 10 years is all I've wanted to do
The thought of it possesses my very soul
It obsesses my mind and heart - it's taking a toll
I've heard 2028 is when time travel will be possible
If I get up the money to go - I'll be ing unstoppable
I'm make sure I do my research and get the accurate time and dates
And I'll take back your greatest mistakes
Would you believe me if I said it to you?
Would you believe that I came back to save you two?
Would it disrupt the rift of the universe's effect?
Or could it backfire on me and forever you two I'll forget?
I'm so broken inside - when you two killed yourselves and died - I did too
I can't believe you guys truly did it - it's true
I'll find a way to save both of you
Would you believe me or laugh in my face?
Would you believe me initial reaction in the first place?
Obsessive, compulsive, impatient, and so ing scared
I can't believe suicide you two even dared
I'm mad, enraged, pulsating - irate!
But something tells me it's never too late...
