The Great Mistake Poem by Airda Jones

Please just listen
A minute is all that I need
To tell you everything
That I can no longer keep

You may not have seen
What I did that day
I was blinded by love at first sight
When you just walked away

And seeing you every morning
Only sunk me deeper in
To this crushing desire of
Knowing what could've been

That brown glass reflected
Back my true being
And I couldn't help but fall
To what I was seeing

Each day was anticipated
Above everything else
And the only thing to break my hypnotic state
Was that heart breaking bell

But I would wait until
I could finally return
Putting up with the others
And hoping for a small turn

One fateful day however
My turn finally came
And after that moment
I just wasn't the same

One second I was
Hoping from so far
Now what I'm hoping for
Is just so hard

There's no way to actually
Say what it is I've hidden
But I've felt so unclear
Since I can remember when

I assume my time is up
And that a minute was too late
Now I'm wondering if telling you
Was actually the greater mistake.
