Regret of Letting Go of True Love

I thought I knew what was best for me,

But now I see, I made a mistake.

I let go of a love that was meant to be,

And now my heart aches.

I remember the laughter and the tears,

The way we danced in the rain.

But I pushed it all away with fears,

And now I feel the pain.

I thought I needed space and time,

To find my way and be free.

But now I realize, that love was mine,

And I let it slip away from me.

I try to fill the emptiness inside,

With things that do not matter.

But the love I lost, I cannot hide,

It will always be a part of me, a chapter.

I regret letting go of true love,

It was a treasure I did not see.

Now I am left with nothing above,

But the regret of letting it be.
