They say you miss all the shots you don’t take,
but after this, I am withdrawn.
I have heard to never judge a book by its cover,
but I read you completely wrong.
I was taught to shoot for the stars,
but I bit off more than I could chew.
The pain feels like daggers, but the journey was a song,
and maybe in the future, I can appreciate how far I’ve come along.
In my heart, I am being genuine and true,
when I give my best efforts to climb the mountain that was you.
