A Letter Of Regret
Angel I am so sorry for the way I chose to do this. Letters are seldom the best way to express regret and sorrow. Early too late I thought how best to soften the blow. Talking face to face I could not do, for my tears would drown us both. Treasure of my heart you must know the fault is all my own. Evil condemned me for the deed I could not keep from myself. Reading this you will find I left in flight during the night. Trust is something I stole from you without your knowledge. Oh, if only I had not done it, we could’ve been good you and me. Your wondering what I did that caused my flight aren’t you… Other than to say in time you might understand; all I can say is I love you. Underneath all my bravado I am and will always be a coward and traitor. Forgive me for he meant nothing, as I lay in his arms I thought only of you. Reasons aplenty there were, I wasn’t myself that day… I was angry at the world… Oh if only one of them would sound good enough… my grief would be for naught. My heart is shattered beyond repair and I fear I’ll do the same to you. My fondest hope is that you shall meet someone worthy of your love. Envious of her I’ll always be… farewell my love.
