Was I not enough?
Let's get through this together
I remember your happy smiles, though they were rare,
I ignored your silent screams, when you needed care.
I don't blame you, for I am not to spare,
Because I didn't notice, your agony bare.
.
Your eyes held darkness, though they were easy to miss,
'Cause you disguised it well, while falling in the abyss.
I thought I healed it, sealed it with a kiss,
Brushing off your tears, mistaking it for bliss.
.
You said you were fine, fooling me well,
Keeping me in the dark of your living hell.
Heightening your walls, hardening your shell,
Till it became a lonely, gloomy cell.
.
I promised you I would be by your side,
Through joy and sorrow, deep and wide.
Yet, you didn't ask for help, you slowly denied,
The happiness you deserve, letting melancholy inside.
.
I don't know where I went wrong, was I not enough?
I thought we did well, through smooth and rough.
You pushed me away, blinded me with bluff,
Pretending to be strong, when you weren't that tough.
.
I wish you'd have trusted me, with secrets good and bad,
I'm sure that would have made difference, at least a tad.
I wouldn't have judged you, wouldn't have forbad,
Your feelings, your thoughts- conflicted and sad.
.
Pulling you into a tight embrace,
I'd have given your problems a good chase,
Till you felt confident enough to face,
To pick on them one by one until they efface.
.
But now you are out of reach,
Though your memories hold on like a leech.
Please come back, I beseech,
Together against the world, goodness we'll preach.
