I'm sorry
that you can't be happy
unless I'm standing next to you
and that I leave you hoping
and praying that I need you too.
I'm sorry
that you have problems
that I can't help you through
and that I'm always distracted
because I have problems too.
I'm sorry
that I left you waiting
fantasizing what may never be
and that I keep finding reminders
of he in you and you in he.
I'm sorry
that you will never read this
and that I make you cry
for I'm a pathetic coward
who will forever leave you asking why.
