A Two Word Summary

by iLYSSA   Jun 29, 2009


*this was supposed to be short but i got into it. heh. i think its too long. so much for 'summing it up'

Dear whoever you may be,
i messed up,
yes i did.
so I'll talk to myself in the middle of the night
like I'm talking to you, to someone at least.
expressing my thoughts and emotions
about how bad i messed things up
and now i have to sit here
and wonder those two damn words,
what if?

its hard to find another way to say
what i need to say to you.
another set of two words
that hold so much more meaning
than it probably does to anyone else.

good-bye is already long gone,
said and done,
but there's another two words lingering
around that i mean with all my heart and soul.

if i had one last sentence to say to you
i would trail on a sentence to try to describe
everything and sum it up into one run-on,
but anyone would probably lose interest
after such a long speech.

so as i sit here, lay here, as i am here
existing day to day
seeing the ghost of you
i reach out to
touch your face,
but my hand always seems to be only
in mid air.

my dear,
i put all of me into these two words.
the two last words i would say to the ghost of you.

I'm sorry.
