I made mistakes.

I did things wrong,

But you always looked over the slightest flaw.

I killed you when I said I couldn’t hold you any longer.

That was a year ago,

And you are probably wondering what I am doing here?

I can’t say I really know.

All I know is I made a mistake the day I let you go.

Don’t speak please let me talk.

I really need to show you something.

Here you go it’s my heart.

I am finally holding it out to you.

Please say you love me,

And we can work it out.

If you don’t love me,

I will understand why.

You grab me,

You hold me close,

And you say it will all be all right.

I don’t understand how you can stand here,

And hold me once again.

I guess what they say is true.

Love knows no bounds or guards only what it feels like in our hearts.
