My Song

wait...

Wait...
When did it happen?
When did I break everything?
When did I open my mouth and everything I said was wrong?

Wait...
Why did I say it?
Why did no one tell me?
Why is everything falling apart and I have no way to stop it?

Wait...
Who did I hurt?
Who didn't tell me that I broke their hearts?
Who allowed me to let them hurt and stew and simmer until it was too much to bear?

Wait...
Where did I say it?
Where did the words hurt you?
Where was the point where you couldn't hold it in any more?

Wait...
What happened?
What did I not intend to say?
What happened to us?

Wait...
I'm sorry
Please forgive me.
I've said my peace,
I've given my excuses
I've shown you my heart.

So while I cry,
Scream,
Beg,
Pleading for you to forgive me,
Will you make me wait
To hear what you want to say?

The ball is in your court,
But I don't know how long I can wait...
