Forever Too late

A horrid taste left in my mouth,

by my own putrid words.

Rabid, the foam surrounds my lips.

The lips you once kissed.



A sadness that will not leave,

takes over my mind, my heart.

Regret but froths from my silent lips.

Everything was my fault.



I read the words poured from your heart.

It is too late to go back.

Even too late for revenge now.

The coldness I brought on myself.



Wishing is a desperate prayer now.

No saviour to comfort me.

Surround myself by all my friends.

Still, something is missing.



I hate myself, for things I've done.

The words still linger on my lips.

Words I can never say to you again.

I still cry for your kiss.



A part of me is holding on,

gripping so tight it hurts.

I can't let go of the memories we made.

My heart is pounding with regret.



My wretched voice, choked with tears.

I don't blame you for your actions.

I fled from you in dire fear,

alone, I deal with my actions.



I can't explain the sorrow I feel.

Sorry remains a part of sorrow.

I look so hard to yesterday,

almost believing there's a tomorrow.



A future with you is forever banished,

by my own rotting self pleasure.

I never expected you to change.

It is I who needed a make-over.



With my vile words, and poison love,

I expected you to hold on.

We tried to salvage strings from the wreckage,

but all strings had been let go.



A horrid taste of my own medicine,

forever decide my fate.

For once, you turned the tables on me.

Now it is forever too late.
