Sorry

I can't

I want to but I can't

I promise I have a reason

So many reasons

None of them are good

And I'm sorry

That I hurt you

I know I hurt you

Don't deny it

I know because I hurt me too

I wish it hadn't happened

Never happened

Well, not never

Maybe when you're better...

You were always good

Too good

Perfect

And I was perfect too

Just not the right kind of perfect

For you

I want to say something

Anything

Apologize

Make sure that you're ok

Are you ok?

It's so hard to not think about you

I feel bad when I don't worry

Something nags that as soon as I forget

You'll be gone

I've seen you smiling since

I glad you're happy

I don't have to feel as guilty for being happy myself now

I wish that I could stay

Watch you from the shadows

Stay in the background so you don't see me

I promise not to touch

Everything I touch breaks

Every tear I shed sends a ripple across time and space

Fracturing the laughter

Freezing the sparkle in your eyes

Will I make it worse

If I let somebody else have a turn with me?

I'm not yours anymore

But I wish I was

Truly I do

But in my daydreams

The arms that snake around my waist and hold me close

Are a darker shade than yours

The collar bone I want to run my lips across

And the chest I want to bury my face in

Are above my head

The face

However

Still seems to belong to you

And this time

I might break three hearts

Not two
