~ A Stupid Mistake~

I made a stupid mistake last night,
A thoughtless move, with everlasting impact.
I didn't know that by muttering that one little sentence
it could make us fall apart.
That sentence, mumbled in moments of confusion,
Lead to a lose more profound than I could have ever imagined.
Realizations always come little too late.
I should have supported you,
told you I understood,
and that no matter how little time you did have for me,
it was the time that we did spend together that mattered.
Now that everythings gone, I realize all this.
I miss you. I love you. That's what I should have said.
But thoughtlessly, what I should have said, wasn't what I did say.
Instead I said "I don't think we should see each other for awhile."
As much as I am missing you,
It was the worst thing I could have said.
It feels like that stupid line, made things final.
Now, as much as I wish I could, I'm unable to take it back.
I was unable to tell you what I was feeling,
that you didn't care. .
Now, I'm afraid that maybe you don't care,
And that would be my fault,
Because I pushed you away.
The last thing I wanted to do, is exactly what I did.
I'm sorry. It was an error in judgement,
A stupid mistake.
