Last Chances

​I stood there, watching as you cried in the corner. 

All I wanted was to talk to you, make you feel better. 

However they didn’t let me, they were sure that I’d hurt you even more. 

I begged, I wish I had begged harder. 

It was my last chance to tell you, my last chance for you to know that I loved you. 

You deserve more love than you receive and I couldn’t give it to you. 

I would’ve been happy, watching you walk out that door smiling. 

A tear slipped down, it hurt to see you like this. 

And I watched the tears stream down as you ran home, alone, in the rain.
