Fatal Ignorance

I got a sinking feeling,
that you were going to leave,
But I ignored my instincts,
I was too late to see.

I could have been there to stop you,
But I wasn't.
I should have blamed this on myself,
But I musn't.

How did I let something like this happen?
I'm supposed to be your friend,
But I failed to notice,
Not until the end.

I'm not okay without you,
I care about you so much,
I want to see you again,
But don't worry- you're not just a memory.
