Wonderment

I wonder if I can learn to walk away,
Even though I tried hard to make you stay.
I’m not one to give away my pride,
So I did not, and I feel regrets inside.
Regrets of being afraid to care for someone other than me,
Of expanding our love to all it could be.
Is it my fault that we entered a slow drift apart?
Or were we stricken from the start?
Many months ago when this relationship was new,
We were happy and I was in love with you.
You broke my once, twice, three times but you weren’t out.
I let you back in without a single doubt.
I was somewhat silly, but I thought you were forever mine.
But after all this time, I found some piece of mind.
