My Mistake
by Mynjuan M Smith
As I stood on the beach and watched the waves
in the ocean go slowly back and forth...
The moon semed to make the waves look
as if they had diamonds embedded into them.
I walk along the shoreline
and I begin to think about my life
and all the mistakes I've made..
My worst mistake was leaving you..
I'ved loved you since we met and became friends.
I love everything about you and words
can't express how much you mean to me.
Baby, you're my other half
and no one makes me happier than you
without you my life is incomplete...
Baby, when I look into your eyes I see everything I want.
You fill my life with so much joy and compassion
and I want to spend my life with you.
I can't even count how many times
I've tried to convince you that this time will be different.
I guess I've run out of chances with you.
I try to show you how much I love you
by doing little things and I've even tried
to explain to you how I really feel
which is hard for me to put into words...
No matter what I say it doesn't matter because I left you.
True enough, we still love each other
and friends isn't the word to describe our relationship,
we're SO much more than that..
Across the sky visions of our past slowly play.
I think what happened to us?
How did I lose my happiness?
A shooting star comes across and I pray
"God please let him understand that I do realize
that I've made a mistake in breaking up with him
and I know I realized it too late.
Help him see that he means the world to me.
And then God, if he still says no, give me the strength
to move on with my life and help me realize
that I did my best to try to make things right."
I walk back up the beach and I turn around
for a glance at the moon hoping that one day he'll be with me again.
