Im sorry

This divided highway
2 paths i can take
one by choice
and one by fate

I can let things go
and see how they fall
or I can take charge
and appologize to them all

The things i regret
are weighing me down
this new free me
feels forever lonely

Wishing for the past
day after day
but praying the future
will hold some kind of change

So easy to avoid
everyone and everything
but so hard
to look at them again

A thousand good memories
flash through my mind
always ending with the one
that ruined it all

How could I not see
what I was doing to them
and how could I ever
expect things to return to normal

The one I loved
and the one I couldnt lose
so hurt by me
and feeling so used

I dont think
I can make this right
the chances grow dimmer
night after night

But ill continue to try
to think of a way
to appologize to those
who i have hurt most

I dont know if youll stay
I dont know what youll say
but i hope its not to late
to lose you this way

This touched me deeply

In reality check time what you stand to lose is never worth the gain. I have a similar pain only I have been fortunate to date. Hugs SS
