My Mistake

You’re ruining my life
And you don’t even know it
I have had feelings for you a long time
But too afraid to really show it

Too afraid to put myself out there
Too afraid let you know how I feel
Too afraid to feel pain
I thought would never heal

But now I see
The mistake I’ve made
To go back and fix it
Almost anything I’d trade

But it’s too late
You’ve found someone new
And all I can do
Is stand here all alone, waiting for you

I didn’t listen to my heart
Now I’ve lost you
I have only myself to blame
I don’t know what to do

Now I sit here about to cry
I feel my heart break
Tears come streaming from my eyes
As I think of my mistake

  Hey. This was really well written..Just remember, life really DOES go on, specially for us teenage people...just don't lock yourself in a little box.

Love can be really harsh, but don't linger on the past. Like Child said, life goes on. You'll find someone who deserves you!   Anyway, this is a great poem. Keep up the good work!

False gems may shine as brightly as the genuine article, but there are always those who can tell the difference.

Having to get over someone is the worst mainly if you have strong feelings for them...Why dont you tell this guy how you feel...You never know whats going on in his head about you...Its worth the try...Cuz you may never have that chance again...

Okay, I don't have much advice for you.  I've read this a couple times...and I'm not really sure what to tell you.  All I can think of is to follow your heart...or your gut instinct, I guess which ever had been best in the past.  Good luck and keep your chin up, great poem! Smile!

I'm bad with advice, so I won't even go there.   But this poem is very very good!!

Hey girl, don't be so harsh on yourself.  Maybe at that time, you really weren't ready. Just because you don't have him now doesn't mean that you made the wrong decision then.  You know what I mean?  Keep your head up, okay?
