I Don't Expect You to Forgive Me

Yes, I'm a coward.
I ran out of places to hide.
I'm taking my life,
But believe me I tried.

For the longest time,
I've only felt pain.
I know you're hurting too,
So let me explain.

I tried it all,
But nothing worked.
These feelings linger.
They always lurked.

Nothing came easy,
It was always hard.
I tried to move on,
But I was just too scarred.

Nothing's your fault,
You're not to blame.
You did nothing wrong,
I'm the one who changed.

I made promises
That I never kept.
I tried to move up,
But I kept tripping on steps.

I love you so much.
I'm going to miss you more.
You can make it through,
I know this for sure.

I'm sorry this is the end.
It's a choice I had to make.
I'm sorry, but I promise you,
That this is my last mistake.
