The Things I Wish You Said Poem by A Starkey

the things i wish you said

i thought i could just forget about you
delet would put the end to all the thoughts i had of you

I thought you would be like the other girls
fun for a night but you weren't, it was more than that
you didn't deserve that
i just didn't know what to do
it wasn't fair
you never did anything bad to me

sorry, can't explain the things i did
i hurt you
i know i did
i can understand you being mad

I was so dumb
you were too good
i thought i would mess it up
that i would ruin your perfection
your so smart
you were naive about me and i used it against you

i was new and exciting and
i just left you hurt and mad at yourself
it's not your fault
it was mine and it will always be mine
can you ever forgive me

if you said these words i would have taken you back
instead you remain muted
far away
either too afraid or heartless to come see me
