Progressive

I wanted to love you, I wanted to say 'hi',
But that chance is is gone, and now it's 'goodbye',

I cut into your thoughts too deep, with a blade of steel,
I see my actions everyday they hit me, intensely real,

I wanted to love you now, but we can take things slow,
My past lead to me pieces, struck straight from a bow,

I'm to blame, my actions that overly obsess,
Too bad I now see, us attempting to progress,

Progressive, progressive, progressive,
Thoughts hitting me again, I was too aggressive.

I was too afraid, mentally unwell,
I thought you wanted me to break my shell,

But after all my hibernation,
My bad reflections causing intimidation,

I despise myself, for not playing the right part
I broke all my promises, and I broke your heart,

Dreaming of you in everything I do, despite myself living in spite,
Can we be progressive? This time, I promise, I'll make things right.
