My Mistake

I called you today

Concerned for something you had said

You didn't answer

Thoughts ran wild inside my head

Had you finally realized

That life was too cruel?

That love can't fix everything?

I desperately wanted to ease your pain

But instead you made me feel

like I was going insane

You answered the phone

You screamed it was a joke

that I take everything too serious

but as someone who has wanted to die

I couldn't shake the feeling

So I stood silent on the phone

With a lump in my throat

Tears streaming down my face

I'm sorry that I called

That was my mistake.
