My Mistake

With life draining slowly,
I know I've made a mistake.
I let go of your love so carelessly,
I didn't even realize that our hearts were at stake.

What I did was wrong,
I know that to be a fact.
I tried to stay so strong,
But I began to see all that I had lacked.

I thought I had let him go,
and was ready to move on with you.
But now I've sunk so low,
I never thought that this would be something that I would do.

That night I turned away,
pretending what I did was right.
I never thought I'd hear you say,
that you were done with me, on that horrible day.

Since I've caused you such pain,
I feel like I've died inside.
I have nothing left to gain,
I'm sick of always having to hide.

So here I leave you at my end,
I must say I'm sorry for all that I've done.
I'm sorry I lost my best friend.
I love you, remember that when I'm gone
