Late Apology

I made a bad decision, and I lost friends over it. For the longest time, I let hate and anger blind me, but now I see that it was stupid. I wish I could go back and fix it, but it is far too late.

----------

Do you think that it's too late?

To go to her; to seal my fate?

To say "I'm sorry!" for what I'd done?

To end this war I thought I'd won?

All it took was one last blow.

A decisive hit that hit too low.

And now I'm gasping, wondering "Why?"

Where on earth did we go awry?

I took a dangerous step too far,

In the dying light of a dying star.

My soul was cast into the abyss,

And I followed blindly, submerged in bliss.

My pride forbid me to turn around.

I left without another sound.

But now, months later, I regret my choice.

I wish I could go back; change my voice.

But now I know that It's too late.

To go to her; to seal my fate.

To say "I'm sorry!" for what I'd done.

To end this war I never won.
