I Wish I'd Been There

I Wish I'd Been There

A Poem by Michelle Rachel
"

...

"
I wish I'd been there to hear your cry for help.
But I wasn't.
It was my fault, I didn't believe a word of what you told me
Over and over again
I didn't want to hear it, and now my heart is hurting 
Because of my stupidity

I wish I could make it up to you somehow
But I know it's not going to happen
Life has just gotten in the way and there's
No way out
I can't help but feel like I've let you down
Like I gave up on you.

I wish it wasn't this way, if only I could see your face
Just one time.
It would make the pain go away, like none of this 
Ever happened
They say amnesia is a disease, I think it's my drug
Because I gave up on you.

I wish I could go back in time and make it
Up to you.
But for now I guess we'll have to live with
Internet chase. 

I love you.

I always have.

I just wish you knew.
