i thought it would make it easier
that it would ease the pain
i thought that once i let go
i'd find myself again
i thought the tears would ceases and stop
that all the memories would fade
i thought that our last goodbye
would end the hurt inside
i thought you'd find happiness
move on and not look back
i thought if you had someone else
i'd have done one thing that's right
i did it all for you (now words)
that i will never get to say
regret and guilt my only comfort
as i look back and remember you
i thought i knew what was best
for you and then for me
i never gave to you a chances
to prove my theory wrong
all i saw was my own self
selfishly i did you wrong
i thought i'd have all the time
to help you understand

I wonder why at the start of the poem there is heart and a parting... and in the end regret?
"i thought it would make it easier
that it would ease the pain" you use "easier" and "ease" too close together. I think if you exchange one of those words for something else that these two lines would flow together a little better.
