All on me

I didn’t want to lose you

But I couldn’t find find the words,

That would convince you to stay

I am just a flawed guy,

Who loves you in an awkward kind of way,

My heart aches when not here

And I feel a desperate sense of being alone,

I just want to tell you this

But you will not answer the phone,

You mean everything to me

You’re beautiful so stunning to see,

You are simply, the very air that I breathe

But I don’t say this to you and that’s on me,

Because I am worried it would sound to corny

And because of this, you chose to leave,

I couldn’t love you more

But you just never felt this,

And that is why I am flawed

I am sorry if you ever felt ignored,

I know just how I feel, I have trouble saying it,

And now I know that I’ve lost you

All because of this,

I didn’t want to lose you

But because of my flaws, I just did,

I didn’t want to lose you

But I guess now that’s the way I’ll have to live,

And it’s all on me, yes it’s all on me

And I am sorry.

  1. Oh my….. this is so so breathtakingly/breathgivingly beautiful. Just so so lovely. I have been reading a lot of posts just now… to me this is the most heavenly. You have such beautiful natural sense of rhythm and rhyme, as always. A so-often perfect chime. I could echo all of these words, it’s like they’re written on my own heart.
    “But I don’t say this to you and that’s on me, / Because I am worried it would sound too corny” – yes!!! That’s same, for me, and for so many of us all, maybe. Beautiful work…. love it. So much. Thanks for sharing it with the world. 🙏💖🌷🔆
