The Choice

At fifteen you changed my life forever.

You were a surprise, a product of violence.

I said no to him but yes to never

Letting you go. I left you in silence

 

A mistake I will always regret cause

in the end I lost more than just a part

of me, and everyday I see my flaws

and sadly I know deep down in my heart

 

I will never be good enough for you.

This is my sincere reason for my choice

That last sacrifice was my gift to you

When you’re older you’ll know it was the right choice
