When I Was Wrong

She said the time has come there is no more, As she peeled off her ring and tossed it to the floor. What did I ever see in you was her last reply, When I’m gone who are you going to have around just to make cry? You never cared you were never there, And all your talk was just tons of hot air. Yeah I remember when it used to feel so right, When you would hold me and cuddle all through the night. But somewhere down the road it just came undone, Maybe I’m being selfish for wanting to be your only one. I tried to please you the best that I could, But it got to the point that no matter what I did you made me feel that I was no good. Enough is enough my heart can’t break anymore, We can never have it the way it was before. This is the hardest thing that I’ve ever done, You’ve been the first and only one I don’t think death can hold this much pain, The love I had for you has nearly driven me completely insane. I never asked you or expected that much, Just some recognition and maybe a casual tender touch. How long has it been since you placed your lips on mine? As she wiped away her tears she said I’ve given you all kinds of signs. Well the only words that came to my mind is I’m sorry for being so blind. I said I know you are right I’m thoughtless as hell and so unkind. But give me a chance don’t walk away, I want to make it better if you’ll only stay. Well we held and we cuddled and it really felt good, And she was right certain things I took for granted and some I never understood. footnote: This is just another poem I made up
