Mistakes
This poem is entitled mistakes
Because I don’t know whether my mistake
Was loving you
Or telling you
And I know you’ve made more than one mistake
Because I can’t count the times I’ve cried
To the ring of your name
When we ended
I wanted to only blame you
But I knew I never could
Which is why we’ve stolen so many kisses
In garages and shadows
I was too afraid to admit my mistakes
And too infatuated to care about yours
You’re the only one I’ve been with more than once
And now I stutter when I speak to you
Even my voice knows the errors of our ways
I miss your laugh and kind eyes.
We lost our friendship. It is our mistake.
