You are the one

I should have chosen

Didn’t realize my heart

Would leave with you

Didn’t appreciate what I had

Now  it’s too late

I often  wonder what

Could have been

You loved me for me

Something hard to find

I didn’t take it seriously

Took your love for me lightly

Didn’t realize I needed  you

Like you needed me

I wish I knew then what

An important role you

Played in my life

I often still see you

But our eyes  no longer meet

The love I used to see in your eyes

Are now vacant

Why did I take you for granted

Wish I had the courage

To tell you how I feel

Turn back time and appreciate

What I had

Wish we had met at a different  time

Now I’m older wiser

I wish you were mine

Next time you see me

Look deep into my eyes

They will show you the truth

In my heart

And I hope deep down

Your love for me is not gone

That its enough

For you to forgive me

Give me a chance to prove to you

That the love was not one way
