Chapter 62 - Afraid to fall...

Sometimes I look back

And I just don't know what to say...

You were a blessing in disguise.

You are the one who got away...

And I can't undo what I did,

No, I can only wish I stayed...

I was caught up in her lies

And all the shitty games she played...

-

She was taking everything from me

While you wanted to give it all...

But I was so afraid to leave her.

I was too afraid to fall...

And I can't tell you how I wish I had

Just turned and left it all...

You were brandishing your heart for me

So written on the walls...

-

I was lost in her.

So lead astray.

So blinded by the words she'd say.

And you were just

So perfect there

That I could hardly look away.

Those halls were filled with children

I still hear them

Till you would walk in.

Then all the noise would fade,

Your bright parade

Was all I needed then.

-

I'm sorry.

I was not ready

For the love and life

You had for me...

I'm sorry.

I was so far gone.

That love for her, 

It lingered on...

I'm sorry.

I did not step up

And leave her,

I was just so stuck...

I'm sorry.

That I was not better.

I wish that your love

Had just made me forget her...

-

Sometimes I think of you

And I hope you're okay.

It's been years,

And I still can remember that day.

We made love just that once,

But it won't go away.

You were captivating

Anyway that you lay.

-

Yes, I hope you are happy.

I hope you are loved.

I wish that I could have been

What you dreamed of.

I was just unevolved...

I was just immature...

I was just so afraid

Cause your love was so pure...

-

But I missed out,

That's my fault.

You are not to blame.

I just hope that you smile

When you think of my name.

I'm so sorry.
