Years passed

and I never could

Go one day

Without thinking

Of your eyes and smile.

"It's okay." You said

truth was it isn't.

I only had one thing

To hold on to.

Hope.

Hope you might be

somewhere,

Waiting for me.

I never healed,

I never will.

You were the light

That stuck by in the morning

By my windows

And told me I could live

another day.

There is just one thing

I regret about you and me.

It's not even the fact

I let you cross the street.

It's not I wanted to go to

NYU.

It's not I met you.

It's not you paired up with me.

It's not I asked you out.

It's not I told you I loved it.
