This Time

You called me up
After three months
Just to see if I was doing okay

You wanted to see
If I could be
Happy on my own without you

Now that you're here
It feels so queer
You should have thought about
This just a little bit more

 I hope you see
 This isn't me
 But this is more than
 I can take right now
 So what do you want from me now?

   Cause I can't lie
   I don't want to go back
   I don't want to go back
   To the way I used to be
   I just want to go in
   And play my guitar
   And tell you I'm sorry
   This time

I don't know why
You want to cry
Already in the hands of someone else

It seems to me
That you'd be happy
That I disappeared from your life in a day

Now that I'm here
It feels so weird
I'm not sure exactly
What you want me to say

 I hope you see
 This isn't me
 But this is more than
 I can take right now
 So what do you want from me now?

   Cause I can't lie
   I don't want to go back
   I don't want to go back
   To the way I used to be
   I just want go to in
   And play my guitar
   And tell you I'm sorry
   This time

You don't understand
This wasn't planned
I never thought I'd hear from you again

But you feel bad
About the way that you were
But it's too late to change anything now

   Cause I can't lie
   I don't want to go back
   I don't want to go back
   To the way I used to be
   I just want go to in
   And play my guitar
   And tell you I'm sorry
   This time

I don't wanna remember
Back in September
Until December
When you left me
This time

I don't want to see you
And ruin this smile
I've had all the while
Until you called me
This time

I just want to sit there all alone
And write my stupid songs
And fix my broken car
Play my dumb guitar
And tell you I'm sorry
Tell you I'm sorry

Tell you I'm sorry

Author notes

I am just confused and I cannot think of a way to fix this situation.  

I'm sorry . . .

    hopeless romantic

    OMG! I go to leave a comment, but then I realize I already left one for you like 2 years ago. I was going to say the same thing about the tissue box! That's so funny.. well here.. another applause because after two years of reading it, it's still good.

    I really liked this one. It was horribly depressing but I can definitely relate. I like the repetition at the end of the sorry's.

    "I don't wanna remember
    Back in September
    Until December
    When you left me
    This time" I like the way the months flow.

    I love the tissue box background...really....lol

    Naaa...naa... Awesome write and I hope you're dealing okay. Yeah, I've dissappeared for a while. My boyfriend's stolen my life away until I am nothing more than a red neck's whore... Nevermind, completely different story there.... Oh well, keep in touch

    Wow dude!! Amazing!!!
    And yet so Sad. I'm very sorry this happened to you, I know what it feels like to be hurt. I'm still not over the pain I got when my first real true love broke my heart! like a month ago! but I haven't been able to put it into words, and some of the things you said sounded like you were speaking for me. especially the part where you say:
    But you feel bad
    About the way that you were
    But it's too late to change anything now

    It's never easy to get over someone you love especially when that person pops back up in your life. (I have to see mine everyday at school)I know it's hard and the pain doesn't feel like it'll go away, and maybe it wont but it will fade gradually over time. I know no one likes getting hurt, and it's something I wouldn't wish on anyone, but know I'm here for you if you need support. Great write and keep smiling!!
    Luv ya~

    Man that has got to hurt!!! I have never been in a romantic relationship so I cannot fully understand the pain of it all. I have been very heart broken from friends and their flaws and such, and I understand the hell it brings when people say you are the one worth leaving sort of, like maybe we aren't good enough for anybody. I felt like that a lot during my time in my old high school, I have changed for the better and I hope that this situation is fixed to the extent that you become a better person and can live a happy, fulfilled life.
    I liked it 'cause writing about our pain is NEVER easy,
    Take care,
