Inspired by Ningwa99's beautiful 'Alone and Ugly'
I lost him once, I lost him twice
He slipped out of my fingers like grains of rice
And now he's lying on a stiff hospital bed
Beside him, a glass of water and a morsel of bread
Just in case he wakes up
If he ever wakes up
His face so peaceful, contoured by the warm afternoon sun
Even unconscious, his beauty can still stun
I wish I could go back in time and save him from this fate
But now it's beyond too late
I just hope I can see him awake one more time
Tell him that I'm...
Sorry. I'm sorry for everything I've ever done
Sorry for not realizing earlier that he was the one
Sorry for not letting him know that
Tears fell from my eyes, landing on the stark white covers with a splat
I'm sorry, and if you don't forgive me
I won't blame you, I wouldn't forgive me either
