There will never be another moment
Like the one I wasted over you
Convinced that it all happened for a reason
Set myself up for failure
And regrets I have to live with
That briefest of connections
Built and lost in the blink of my eyes
An exercise in never understanding
What I have and just what it all means
I’m sure I’m meant to miss you for forever
You and what your presence came to be
And in the times like these
When I could use a friend
I’ll mourn what I managed to destroy
Instead of hanging on
I’ll likely never get a chance to fix it
This mess I made of what we were becoming
But one day I’ll be happy
One day I’ll find my freedom
And I’ll learn from this failure in the end
