All I Ever

Another one of those random thoughts I have when I read sad love stories. That regretful feeling of hurting the one you care for the most. You know you love him, but you don't know how to...and you wish you had just stayed away and spared him the heartbreak.

***

We shouldn't have met

I wouldn't have hurt you

Then all this pain that challenges my sanity would not have come

I shouldn't have said

That I could love you

Then all this regret for bending promises wouldn't consume me

I do care,

And I did try as much as I can

But my heart was a glove

That wouldn't fit your hand

While you gave a happiness I never knew,

All I ever did was unknowingly wound you
