i see you and me,
fighting all the time,
its not how it used to be,

We always used to laugh,
youd be there when id cry,
but now it feels so dark,
almost like saying goodbye...

Now your drifting further,
and im drowning away,
screaming haunts my hollow heart,
carved inside, all the hurtful things i say,

And every word is torture,
and my every word is hate,
can we fix our friendship,
or is it too late,

I can hear you crying,
just from down the hall,
if i could take back one thing,
i would take it all,

from the very first moment,
that i first said,
i hate you momma,
i wish you were dead,

I can hear you crying,
just from down the hall,
if i could take back one thing,
i would take it all,

I miss knowing you love me,
i miss our conversations,
now all that i can feel for you,
is a dark, tainted frustration,

Theres so much that i wish i could tell you,
how i suddenly cant breathe,
and if you would tell me its all okay,
that is all i need,

its tearing me to pieces,
how im tearing you apart,
i wish i could erase this,
and still be in your heart,

I can hear you crying,
just from down the hall,
if i could take back one thing,
i would take it all,

from the very first moment,
that i first said,
i hate you momma,
i wish you were dead,

I can hear you crying,
just from down the hall,
if i could take back one thing,
i would take it all,

If i could take back one thing,

I would take it all.

Great poem, so many have said those words,
but few have put together a reply, "I am sorry". I liked this a great deal.
