With A Secret

All with a secret did I almost lose you.

So many tears did fall for I hurt you.

How can I fix what I have so utterly broken?



One chance did I have and so ruined it was.

Timing is of my worst enemy.

So vulnerable am I... especially with you.

The one and only.



Belonging to you is my heart.

I gave it up and yet you know not.

Know that it is yours upon only a request.

All I ask is for you to cherish it.

Please don't break it.



With only regret do I feel the twists and turns.

So harsh is it on my soul.

The pain I can no longer bear.

So dark toward my eyes.

My reflection I can no longer see.



How has it come so far?

How can time heal all wounds?

For so quickly do they manifest.

For so deep do they become.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

... I was just thinking about a best friend that I screwed up with... I just hope that even though forgiveness has been given in words... that it can also be in heart.

Hello you,
Felt like dropping aline in on this one, knowing what it's about. It's a good free verse... it seems to be your form of choice, but it works very well to you. As to whom you refer to, about the secrecy, I am confident that he's harder to get rid of than just keeping one secret, and now that it's out I guess things can only go up.
Peace Out,
Much Love,
Irish
