You for me

There were so many more things 

I wanted to say before I left. 

That you were the one for me,

that you are all I ever dream about, 

that no matter how you feel,

for me it will always be you. 

I wanted to say how much you taught me, 

how much I love all in you,

the good and the bad. 

How I would linger over what I said 

and how I would regret not staying 

and wish you were here now. 

But what hurt the most about leaving 

was not watching you leave 

and choosing to watch myself 

close the door and walk away. 

And what hurt the most about being gone

was that I just wanted to come back 

because it was always you for me,

but it was never me for you.
