Was I Wrong?

I chose myself over her...
Was i wrong?
I wanted it to end, altogether...
Was i wrong?
There comes a sense of impending doom, sooner or later,
For the better, we turned lovers to haters...
Was i wrong?

'Was i wrong?' is what I'm stuck at,
Can't find someone to answer it all...
'Am i wrong?' is what is bugging me,
Nobody on the other side to call...

I sometimes think about the setting sun,
If I might rise again...
Admiring the strength it takes, 
To rise and fall everyday...

I love the moon, the spots on it too, and the message it portrays...
It's empowering to see such imperfect perfection, admired everyday...

I love the stars, even the falling ones,
They say that everything decays...
It's all just a matter of time, 
For all of us to be replaced...

No, I'm not irreplaceable,
I thought about it, gave it a day... 
All i figured out was that, 
We're here, on earth, for a vacay...

None of us have a purpose big enough, 
not even a consolidated state...
You can choose to die like a hero, 
And hope you're forgotten late...
