There was nothing I could do
As the knife sunk into your flesh
I was unaware
Of all the pain that I was causing you
The blade that I had
Steadily sinking into you skin
And there was nothing I could do
But say sorry and beg for acceptance from you
I'm so sorry that I hurt you
I never meant you any harm
Sorry for all of the lies that I told
And sorry for the times that you believed them
But there was nothing I could do
As the blade I wielded broke your flesh
And the marks that I made deepened
Causing so much pain
But there was nothing that I could do
There was nothing to be done that could possibly save you
This poem I wrote for a couple of reasons, the first one would be all the times I lied to please another person, two, is for all of the people who have hurt people to keep them away (including me) and three is for all of the people who died because there was something going on in their life that just didn't make it worth living.
