Forced Goodbye
I wanted to write you a letter,
Hoping that you were all the more better,
But I know that you're not;
Know that you got,
Hurt.
I keep telling myself that I can help you,
Maybe save you,
But I'm not the hero that you need.
I'm the zero that watched you bleed.
I can write and write,
Watch day turn to night,
But that doesn't erase how I wronged you,
Hide how I conned you.
I started with 'Dear.'
Got caught up with these tears.
Now everything is starting to smear,
And nothing looks as clear.
I tried to write 'Sincerely,'
But my hand fought severely.
The pen burnt a hole,
Directly to this guilty soul.
I committed the crime,
Can't be the hero this time.
I'm sorry that you hurt,
Sorry that I can't write you goodbye,
But I can't help but avert;
Turn away as you pass life by.
