Gomenasai

Gomenasai
For everything I did.
Gomenasai
For everything I said.
Gomenasai,
I know I failed you.
Gomenasai,
I never needed you, until today.

I look in the mirror and flinch at what I see.
A broken soul, as frail as can be.
All you wanted from me
Was something I could never give.
You wanted my praise,
Something to set ablaze
Those unhappy memories.
You wanted my friendship
But it didnâ??t come free.
So,

Gomenasai
For everything I did.
Gomenasai
For everything I said.
Gomenasai,
I know I failed you.
Gomenasai,
I never needed you, until today.

I look into the past and all I can see
Is you needing me.
I can see you reaching, begging me
But I just walked away.
I missed the look of hurt in your eyes;
The potential pain you held inside.

I never knew what I was doing to you,
I was so blinded by my envy towards you.
I donâ??t know what came over me
But now Iâ??m here to set you free.

Gomenasai
For everything I did.
Gomenasai
For everything I said.
Gomenasai,
I know I failed you.
Gomenasai,
I never needed you, until today.

Gomenasai
For not being there.
Gomenasai
For never loving you.
Gomenasai
For leaving you with your pain.
Gomenasai
For walking away.
Gomenasai
I never meant to hurt you
And Iâ??m here to set it straight.

Gomenasai
For everything I did.
Gomenasai
For everything I said.
Gomenasai,
I know I failed you.
Gomenasai,
I never needed you, until today.

I know I failed you.
I know I caused you pain.
I know that every little word I said
Cut you to the bone.
I never meant for it to go this way,
And if I could
Iâ??d take back every little thing I said.

Gomenasai
For everything I did.
Gomenasai
For everything I said.
Gomenasai,
I know I failed you.
Gomenasai,
I never needed you, until today

Gomenasai
For everything I did.
Gomenasai
For everything I said.
Gomenasai,
I know I failed you.
Gomenasai,
I never needed you, until today

Gomenasai
Until the end of tomorrow.
Gomenasai
I hope it never fades away.
Gomenasai
Forever and for always.
Gomenasai
Until the world stops spinning.

Gomenasai
Forever.

Gomenasai
I never needed you.... Until today.

*A/N: For those of you who don\'t know, Gomenasai means \"I\'m sorry\" in Japanese. Also, this was intended to be more of a song than a poem but it\'s not quite there yet. This was written for a friend of mine that I neglected for so long. I\'m trying to right my wrongs but it isn\'t working all that well. Maybe I should have learned to treat my friends better.*
