From here, now
I can see
I did it all wrong
It’s not a question of love anymore
It’s about my life
Or what is left from it
I shouldn’t have done it
Things shouldn’t get so far

From here, now
I find no strengths
To fix all I broke
All I lost and send away
Another step behind
In this life where all goes wrong
Another fall down
To rise above

From here, now
I can see
I had no right to let it happen
But how could I know
I hate myself now
For everything I’ve done
For everything undone
For what I am

From here, now
I find no strengths
And I only wish I could
Give up from me
I just can’t do it
For those around
Waiting for me to be the hero
They don’t know I’m not

From here, now
I can see
I’m not a bad guy
Just a dreamer wasting life
The only one I’ve got
And should take care of
Always founding new ways
To get hurt and weaker

From here, now
I hope you can see
What it does mean
To put you on top of all
To love you like I do
Being so sure you never did it
And find myself
Not sure where to go

From here, now
I will find a way
No matter where to
‘Cause here I’m not living
You, you won’t be there
To feel sorry or proud of the guy
Whose life you changed forever
Even you didn’t notice

From here, now
I say
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to this me
I must go, truly, I have to
But believe me
You were the only
I really, really loved

well done. . .

it's hard to walk away from something like this. . . even when it changes us. . . but, we must. . .

excellent words, and the form you use here is well fitting for them. . .

Beautiful poem.  So many times relationships turn out to be not much more than learning experiences.  Sometimes even if the relationship fails, if you've learned something it wasn't really a failure.
(wow, i just came up with that)
Anyway, it really was a beautiful poem.

It's never easy to go through something like this, but in the end it makes us better for it.  Sure doesn't seem like it when you're going through it, but it will in time.  Best of luck to you.

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
