Little Secrets

heartless chase

I apologize sincere,

For the inactivity, I hold no cheer.

A distant path, I cannot now embrace,

To give false hopes, a cruel, heartless chase.

My words, they sting, I know, it's true,

To hurt you, I never wished to do.

I'm sorry, for my chance with you, I lose,

A burden now, my heart refuses to choose.

Regret consumes, a feeling deep inside,

I hope you grasp the turmoil where I hide.

I didn't seek this ending, sad and gray,

In hope you'll understand, he humbly said.
