Understandings

I tried so hard,

But all is done.

This battle I've fought,

Can't be won.

At the edge,

You pushed me in,

Icy water.

I tried to swim.

Hate grabbed hold,

Down I'd go.

The water so cold,

Only I would know.

You sat and watched,

As I fought so hard.

I could not win,

Fate dealt the cards.

At the last moment,

You reached for my hand.

I pushed you away.

I did understand.

As I reach the depths,

I blew you a kiss.

My final goodbye,

My very last wish.

I'd forgave your wrongs,

And hoped you'd mine,

But life isn't fair.

There was never time.
