If Only Poem by Ashley Dowdy (Forbus)

You wanted all the essentials
That come in a relationship
Yet, you could not, and would not make us offical
You blame me for the monster I can be
However, you choose not to see
How torn you have made me
Yes, this is true
I hurt myself
By hurting you
I am my own prisioner locked up in my
own twisted, betrayful ways
Understanding this is why my
Heart is still a stray
Wondering lonesomely
Wishing to be scooped up into your
strong arms of compassion
To be pressed tight against your chest
To be help close to your heart
I have been broken as have you
My dear let me bind your peices
and you mend mine
If only I could turn back time
