Dreams that won't be fulfilled and wishes that will never be granted

I always look back on the past and start wishing that I could change things. I start regretting a lot of choices and mistakes, and that's normal, to regret your mistakes.

But if there's one thing I don't wish to change or that I regret happening was us.  I don't ever wish that for a second that something about what we had was different. To me it was perfect, we may not have been perfect, but every couple is perfect in its own right.

I felt that I could give you anything, I felt that if we just talked things would work out. But even talking seemed as difficult as climbing a mountain. A mountain of fear and anxiety. Fear that I would mess things up.

A constant fear that would never leave, no matter how much I wished.  And in the end I did mess things up.

You were perfect

Us,

Not so much.

But you still are perfect

And don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

You will find someone new and make them the happiest person they could ever be. You will come across someone who loves you just as much as you do them.

And me?

Well, I'll be watching.

Not like a stalker or a creep.

But just because I want to see you happy.

And I'll still be regretting

And wishing that it was me who could've been that person.
