After all the things I told you,
all the things you knew..
I thought I knew you better than that
yet you tried to walk on me like some sort of welcome mat.
I lost so much respect for you that day
my disappointment was as clear as a bad toupee.
I was shocked by what you said
I guess when we met I was just mislead.
I miss the friendship I thought we had
now all I can do is put this down in a writing pad.
There's so many things I wish I could say,
its been several months and I haven't heard from you to this day.
It tore me up inside to say goodbye
it took all of my strength not to cry.
I had to break a promise if I wanted to be with you,
but darling that's something I just couldn't do.
My promise is important, its part of what makes me me.
And anything other than that, is something I can't be.
I miss you, but I'm not sorry, for what I had to say.
The only thing I'm sorry for was falling for you one day.
I thought I was over that puppy love,
but after our conversation, all I heard was a mourning dove.
I really thought we were friends, I really thought you cared,
so when you asked that of me I was unprepared.
I had to say no, its against my beliefs,
its breaking that promise that makes me me.
Its simple to me, its black and white
its something to save for my wedding night.
I'm sorry that I trusted you, I'm sorry I believed.
But now you see, these things we've lost, will never be retrieved.
Had I done what you wanted, had I been naïve,
there would have been more that I could not retrieve.
I'm glad that I stood up for myself, but once in a while I miss you.
I missed all the things we lost, and never got to do.
But then I think and I'm better off, but I wish I had the guts to say,
all the things I wrote here today.
