The pirate I wished was mine

You said you had good think and a bit of a cry.
I wasn't ready for that comment.
You said that "we'll potentially date" was actually "we'll just be friends".
I thought you knew that.
You didn't understand.
>
I guess I did leave it a little ambiguous.
You were confused.
I guess when you want to see something, you will always find it.
You thought you knew what was happening.
I wanted it to be true as well.
>
You thought I said "after this year we'll date".
I said "this year I will not date".
You thought I said "we'll wait a year".
I actually said "I'll wait a year".
You misquoted me in you memories.
>
I thought you were beautiful, funny and intelligent.
You still are.
I thought you would make a great girlfriend, maybe even my wife.
You maybe my greatest regret.
I hope I haven't made a mistake.

Author notes

This is pretty rough, I just wrote it and haven't written much for years. but alas, if i didn't write this now I would not get to sleep.

*later edit* It's interesting to read this a year later when it has all blown over. "greatest regret"... well... I guess that's poetic licence... ahh... I love how I only seem to write poems when I'm distress and having trouble communicating it.
Still this poem was fun, if not just because I got to play with a different structure than my usual rhyme-based poems.

How would you make this better?
