Mistake


by Dawn Souter (15)

It's my mistake,
I admit.
But I don't want to give up on us,
I don't want to quit.
What can I do,
to make you see,
how much I'm sorry,
and how much I love thee?
What can I do,
to make a new start?
I love you too much,
to watch you part.
So many nights,
I sit and cry.
I love you,
and that I can't deny.
It's my mistake,
I can not lie.
Now you're gone,
and I slowly, die.
