Time keeps ticking away
It always seems like there’s one less day
To do and say all the things that I want.

I remember how it felt
To finally enjoy the hand I was dealt
To truly love the fact that I was me.

I remember those times we shared
And I remember how much I cared
And I hope you cared just the same.

Then things took a dive
Like things seem to do in life
I ended up being another asshole boy.

I play the scenes in my head
Over and over while lying in bed
It hurts to relive those mistakes again and again and again.

Every time I picture you crying
I feel my soul inside me dying
I can’t believe I became something I hate.

I know there’s nothing I can do
To make up for what I did to you
But I’m willing to spend my days trying my best.

And I know I may be too late
That your love might be replaced by your hate
And I can’t argue, because I would do the same thing.

So if my ship has sailed
I will know how much I have failed
And there’s nothing that can make me feel whole again.

But if there’s a way to get on track
For you I’d go through hell and then back
And even then I won’t have done enough.

So here’s another sad little poem
Knowing I made us alone
And things may never be the same.

Time keeps ticking away
It always seems like there’s one less day
To do and say all the things that I want.
