I Threw Our Love Away (Part 2) Poem by Ray Hansell

She asked me why
I threw our love away
I just looked at her
I didn't know what to say

I watched as tears
Ran down her cheeks
I just stood there
I couldn't speak

Back then I didn't care
I just walked away
I still have regrets
To this very day

I threw away the only love
My heart has ever known
I must admit that through the years
My pain has only grown

I have been all alone
Since that fateful day
For the life of me
I still don't know what to say

I know through tears she told me
That I treated her badly
Would I take her back?
I would so very gladly

In life sometimes we do things
When we think we know it all
Never ever imagining
Just how far we'd fall

I know I am to blame
For creating this whole mess
I was just young and stupid
That would be my guess
