I am not that person to make you smile. The person you wish was always around.
For the times I tried to make you laugh, and instead I made you sad.
I could not be the one to hug you or the one to kiss you goodnight.
I could not hold your hand in those days you needed to be embraced.
I walked away and left you to cry.
I was too selfish to hear your feelings you had inside.
I could not be you would love, and the one to trust.
I did not write you letters when I said that I promise I would.
If I did not listen to your words you screamed in agony. The same ones I now hear clearly.
You had to feel pain.
You felt that life was just a game.
I sometimes can’t find the words to express.
If I have failed you like the rest.
I did not speak up for you when your voice was not heard.
I let someone else love you before I had the chance.
I did not reach far enough for your hand.
I could not love you in time.
