You May Never Know

A daily routine of habit A daily dose of joy A daily bit of peace A daily moment I didn’t get to say Good Morning today I didn’t get to see you wake up and face the day I didn’t get to wish you a good day You went through your day You made memories we won’t share You won’t know how much I care I didn’t get to say Good Night I didn’t get to hear your voice I didn’t get to feel your warmth You will do it all again You will take each day and keep going You will have the life without the burden of me I didn’t get to say those words today I will never get to say them again I will never be the same You will never know You may not even care You probably hate me I am broken in ways I don’t understand I thought it could be different I didn’t want to fail you, us Time passes and life continues Broken and shattered pieces shuffle and change A different path is laid, filled with gaps and uncertainty The pictures I see tell a story The words I am told a fairy tale There seems to be joy There appears to be love, Could it be a piece has been made whole? I feel a glimmer of hope for you to have it all, I want you to have everything we hoped for I don’t think I have ever dreamed of more Out of pain I made a choice Out of fear I destroyed a life Out of disbelief I shattered heart and soul Now you’ll never hear my words, my thoughts Now you don’t know, maybe don’t care You will always be a part of me, You will always have a piece of my soul, I will always feel you in my heart, I could never let go, even if you may never know.
