Too Late

Saw her at school everyday
"Stop teasing her" was what I wanted to say
I knew what she felt inside
But damn my ego and my pride
Never told her about my love for her
Never to me did it occur
That my time with her was limited
Never more in a girl was I interested
A few months ago she committed suicide
"We'll miss her" everyone said, but they all are so blind
The fact that she's dead because of them
She was to be preserved, she was just like a gem

I feel responsible for her death
I should've been the one to save her breath
She needed someone to be by her side
When she felt useless and when she cried
I could have been the one
But now my ignorance cant be undone
Should've told her she was a piece of art
These halls now seem as empty as my heart
Wish I could go back and make it right
Want to hold her in my arms gentle and tight
