Dark Rooom

If only, for that one time i hadnt listened to your voice. Perhaps, instead of wrapping my arms around my chest.            Id be holing you instead. If only ive taken matters in my own hands, i wouldnt be sitting in this dark room, reliving the day that you were taken from me. He was harmless, as you would say to me. Even as he followed you home from a distance. In his obsession of you, he drove himsrelf mad. Leave him be, you would tell me.                                            Untill the day he took you from me. Now i sit here in this dark room, blamimg myself.

I was supposed to protect you... i failed.

Deep! Yet, there is no shame in self-forgiveness for late awareness and wisdom. Life has its own way of lessoning. Peace and Love.
