regret

by formax - Not entered

all the time i let go by
and i never even said goodbye
i'm washed away with emptiness
now that you had to die
and all the years i meant to say
i'm sorry i was wrong
and every time i had the chance
now i wish i had not waited so long
and now seeing where you'll spend your life
and knowing you'll be there forever 
just the way you said you would be for me
and now i can say that i will never
feel as strong or be the same
because there's no one they can blame
and it hurts to even hear your name
i can say right now i'll never be the same

Reason for writing:

    A dear friend of mine was shot and he died a while back and it has been one of the greatest losses to me.  I just wrote this while on the page and it is not all that but it is the words that go through my head every time I think about it.  I miss him so much and I know he is in a better place somewhere.  I miss you Max and we all love you.
