From the Heart

Remember when that kid on the playground accidentally knocked you over?

He apologized and you were cool with it

Everything was okay

But sometimes, with other situations, sorry doesn't cover it

Sometimes, only certain apologies mean something

And ones you say after you truly hurt someone

Don't really measure up

Sure, they say it's fine

But inside, it's not, it's just another sting of pain

And I know the things I've done to you

Aren't the best

The times I wouldn't kiss you

Or let you touch me

And the times we fought

Those were mistakes

Times I'd take back in a heartbeat if I could

Because once I look back

I realize I wasn't only hurting you, but hurting myself

Completly unknowing of the fact that we wouldn't be together for long

Not realizing there was little time to waste

But there weren't just bad times

There were amazing ones too

Like that one night where we were taking a walk

Holding hands, fingers laced

And you kissed me

The most perfect night I could ever imagine

Seems like your average story right?

Wrong.

It wasn't just a fling

I fell in love with you

Deep, tender, wonderful love

And I fell so quickly

But like you promised

You were there to catch me

And that's when life changed

You made me happier every day

The reason I went through with life

And you made me smile all the time

Your kisses were sweet and your hugs tight

You cared for me more than any other guy

You were determined to have me, willing to risk it all

You were special to me, you really were

But I had always wondered why you picked me

Why a sweet, loving, caring guy like you picked me

But now I know I was lucky

And I lost it all

With just a few words

And a short time after that, I lost you

Heartbreaking time that was

Losing one of my best friends

But then you apologized

Which meant the world to me

And everything was ok

But now, I know I hurt you

Broke your heart once

And I know I should never fully be forgiven for that

But it hurts me to know I hurt you

And you could call it over-reacting

But these little things matter to me

I can't undo the done

I can't go back in time and change what happened

What happened, happened

And no number of sorrys can change that

The way you felt

But you don't deserve just a sorry

You deserve more than that

To show you that it truly was a mistake

But like I said

What happened, happened

And it's froze there

Memories or no memories, it happened

But now we have this

A close friendship that won't be damamged anymore

And I guess that was fate all along
