You....

I loved and I loved
But eventually, I lost you
I regret everything I didn't do
I cherish every memory we ever made
You were my lighthouse in the storm
I was a little scared boat that washed
Upon your shore, you welcomed me
You showed me light
Even though I was broken as could be
You were what fixed me
You made me strong
Until the day, things went wrong
I messed up, I know I did
I regret it and we talked it out
We thought we got through it
But I couldn't let the one thing go
The one thing you wouldn't say
Is what made me hide it all away
All my pain got sucked back in
Not to help push my sail again
But to slowly break me down

You turned into the storm that day
You slowly pushed me away
Until I was scared
Scared and broken, once again
Now I'm just wood, floating
Floating on the water I was in
When you first saw and drew me close
You were my everything
You still are

I'm sorry things ended the way they did
please be a lighthouse once again
If not for me, then for them
Your future someone is waiting
To see your light and feel comfort
They'll come to you,
when the time is right
So shine and shine bright

Authors note: I noticed that some of it rhymed. That was an accident but whatever. It's a free write, like most of my poems. And like me, they're not perfect
