The Mistake That Separates Us

The Mistake That Separates Us

A Poem by TenderWritings
"

It's never too late to realise that it's too late now.

"

“And after all these years of taking me for granted,

 that point finally comes when you are leaving me behind.

 I know what you think.

 You think that there is nothing left here and it’s better to go,

 but you don’t see that you wear a blindfold.

 And, I can bet you after going too ahead on this path,

you’ll be hit by that blankness and fall into your own wrath.

 You’ll feel something missing in your life,

 something that holds the power of making you happier.

 You’d try to look back to search for what you left behind,

 you’d try walking a few steps back in time.

 You ‘d look to your side and find me standing there,

 but surprisingly that distance between us doesn’t seem to disappear.

 You’ll try very hard but not late enough will you realise,

 that all we had become were two parallel lines.

 Though we’d still show similar signs,

 we would remain separated by our mistakes and stretches of time. ”
