Looking Behind [#4 Poem]

"When you're tired of running away,
When you're weary of looking away,
When you're sick of closing your eyes,
When you're exhausted of hiding behind.

"When you're done with hiding your faults,
When you're finished with pretending to be something you're not,
When you feel the weight of your loss,
When you understand what has been lost.

"When you realize what you have done,
When you wonder if something else could've been done,
When you wish things would've turned out differently,
When you wish you would've treated me differently,

"When you wish you could've done everything differently,
Don't look behind,
For you'll realize I'm not there anymore."
