13 Years

sad poetry

2 months shy of 13 years,

And we have succome to all our fears.

Everything we swore we'd never become,

Is where we are after all we've come from.

I'm sorry to say I don't think I'm the one,

You deserve to be happy and to have only fun.

Like a bad dream,I'd like to wake to a new reality,

Take us back to a time when we were so carefree.

Sorry I wasn't the one for you in this life,

Promise in the next I'll make a much better wife.

So please don't feel bad about how we fell apart,

Both are responsible for this mess from the start.

Maybe one day our love will spark a new flame,

Our story knowing fresh beginnings,without blame.

You will always be in my heart and on my mind,

With memories so sweet and words only kind.

Fear not for the future,you are an amazing man,

Someone looking in vein could do you better than I can.

I can't help the feeling that I'm holding you back,

And I'd like to fix the strengths that I lack.

For the first time in a while I'm thinking clearly,

Knowing I didn't deserve the love I held so dearly.
