I See The Light Poem by rita alyson petts

I thought I was to blame,
He said I was to blame,
And all the time the blame was in himself.
I thought he didn't love me because of what I'd done
But his love was really felt for someone else..
I had always loved him from the very start and thought
Deep in his heart he did love me.
I made excuses for him 'he's so reserved and shy '
One who cared could surely set him free
Alas the years rolled by for me ashamed, unloved and sad
The tears I shed would fill the sea I thought I was so bad.
I thought I was a failure; but now I see the light
He never ever loved me so everything's alright.
He said I was to blame I could bare no more strife
I had no choice but walk away; to save my very life.
For in my life I needed love and that was never there
I can excuse, forgive myself; now all the facts are bare
The key is now turned in the lock; he's shut tight in the past
Our Lives have come full circle; and I have peace at last
