Beginning to End

You caught my eye today,
As you quickly passed me by,
The pit of my stomach fumbled,
And my heart began to cry,

I wanted to call out your name,
And tell you everything I felt,
How the night before I cried for you,
While on one knee, I knelt,

I prayed that I could turn things back,
And not be so afraid,
But I can't erase the things I said,
The mistake's already been made,

I wanted to look you in the eye,
And tell you how I'd been so wrong,
But there was nothing I could do,
I've waited much too long,

It's amazing how I let it slip,
I didn't realize how long it'd been,
Five months, a couple days, or more,
And I still let depression win,

You tried so hard to get through to me,
Even when I was unreachable,
You took my hand and taught me things,
Everyone would assume not teachable,

You stuck with me in the worst of times,
And it's strange now that you've left,
A part of me has gone with you,
A part of me you still possess,

I called it off too soon, I know,
I let emotions take over my heart,
I was afraid, lost, yet infatuated,
And now it's tearing me apart,

It took me this long to realize,
That my heart quite simply belongs to you,
And I'm sorry, for everything I did,
Now- If only I could get that through,

I'll see you soon again, in time,
And I'll remember all over again,
How I turned everything up-side-down,
And made our beginning-- end.

^ Yeah, I know it's not good.
