Poem For My Ex Poem by Barbara Dixion

I'd say I'm sorry
But words Don't compare
To the damage I caused your heart
The crime scene I left there
I was fifteen I was so afraid
Of what it meant that
I let you slowly fade
Then you cheated
Leaving my soul to be deleted
I guess your agenda was completed
Now three years later
I met this boy I love with all my heart
And I know deep inside
That it tears you apart
Flashback to the day we kissed
Next day I dumped you in a text
And I hate myself
For what happened next
You said how could I
After all we've been through
And I yelled and
Said I didn't love you
Then you left
And cut open your skin
And with each cut you wondered
Where the love had been
I break when I look in your eyes
I break when I look in your heart
I break because I was supposed
To be your new start
I broke
Because I broke you
Because I let you slowly fade
I broke
I too used a razorblade
I broke
Because your overdose put you
In a hospital bed
I broke and my tears bled
I broke because I sit on the ledge
And my tears fall but you keep
Me from jumping off the edge
My poor broken angel
I didn't know the reality of your
Broken wings
My broken angel I'm sorry
For the pain love brings
My broken angel
I experimented with your soul
Now you can't take flight
I know the monsters come at night
They make it hard for you to fight
My broken angel do you see the light
Or was our love so blind
It has completely stolen your sight?
I'd say I'm sorry
But I know words don't compare
But I hope you accept my poem
And that i'll always be there
