Sorry for making you cry,

it was just not our time,

I told myself to give it a try

but it was convinced it wouldn't be alright.

After years, your little boy makes me smile,

I see the life we could have had.

I hope you tell him one day,

who I was in those days,

and forgive me for not choosing

what it could have been a huge mistake.
