I’m sorry

I really am

For what turned this beautiful relationship we had

Into a mess

We progressed to success

And yet it feels necessary to confess my regrets, as a creator

I failed you

Time and time before

Founded my nature in prayer

But found my divine in war

As we fought I reminisced

About what I thought I’d missed

The love that we shared and how easily it got to my head - In the end

Instead of loving you I idolized the person you were

I said nothing of your perfection because all these words

(I said all that about your perfection because these words)

Meant becoming lost by your eye and trapped on my own

Because no more would you cling to me to feel like you’d grown

I’d be replaced by someone who is better than me Eventually came to reality

to find that it was over so now we could both see

That it came and went so quickly that I forgot to give you that special key to

Your passion and hope and desire and love

And how your staggering beauty floats so high up, above

Now here we are, no moving back or stopping time

The flow of life is not merely a pointless one way ride

You’ve gotta rise up and find your reason for growth

Learn to see the beauty I saw in you on your own

I assure you this quest will not be easy or free

But you’ll learn about who you want to be

And how you plan to get there, because the most important thing

Is building these goals and then proceeding to bring

Yourself closer and closer to a future you desire

I’ll be trying too, with every step we float higher

And when we collide at long last our lights

May entangle and bring us together one last time

Finally find ourselves free of our might

So you and I can just feel balanced and at once all right

I miss you, beyond time’s compare

Nothing can ever prove that we were really here

(no one can ever tell us that we were never here)

But I know that without our love it wouldn’t be so clear

Nearly all of what matters left up to fate and fear

So thank you for faith in disguise

Thank you, for truly opening up our eyes

Every night, when we dream we can realise

-- The potential of our own compromise
