Never

One voice
calling to me
One voice
I tried to be
everything you needed
One voice
tells me I failed
haunts me at night
(my cries in the dark-
nothing compared to hers)
-All I did was apologize
(I’m sick of saying sorry)
I could have been so much more
One voice
I’ll never forget
"Why am I here?"
I tried to help
I never knew
I needed you
but you had me
and you had nothing
What am I?
One voice
I could have saved
One voice
will never cry again
(I’ll never hear you laugh again)
except in my mocking memory
(you’re all that’s there)
