Wish I Had Held You Longer

Here I am,
Sitting alone,
Thinking of you,
Wishing you were here,
But you're not.

The last words spoken
Were not how I really feel,
And now it's too late to take them back.

You left in such a hurry,
We didn't get to work it out,
Words unspoken,
Left hanging in the air,
How could you leave it that way?

And now you are gone forever.

Did you have to leave in anger?
Seeing red and pissing mad.
Could you not have stayed a moment longer?
Talked it out, or calmed down?

Why didn't you see the train,
The flashing lights or crossing arm?
Were you so angry that you didn't pay attention?
Or was your music up too loud?

Why did you have to leave that day,
So full of anger and hating me?
If I had held you one minute longer,
You'd still be here with me.

I will never forgive myself
For that sad and fateful day.
When our anger went beyond our control
And led you to your grave.
