How many times must you remind me
of what I’ve done wrong
-Every time I walk by?
I reflect the sorrow in your eyes
Though in my eyes is a sorrow of
regret and remorse.
The kind of sorrow that you bring upon yourself
and can’t take away.
My dreams of you have gotten worse
since the last.
Dreams where you turn your back on me
and leave me in the past.
There have been times when I haven’t
thought of you
but those are the times when I miss you the most.
What I did to you plagues me
and haunts me like a ghost.
You’ll never know how often I regret.
I think of what could have been
and what shouldn’t be,
That is
The sorrow you give to me.
Though sad, this piece is so emotionally evocative!
