Lost Chance

I waited, and waited
And finally got the chance
Yet when I tried to grab it
It slipped through my hands.

It feels like forever, when will my heart beat better?
I'll keep my head up, only for the future.
Those 8 simple letters
Hold more weight than than you can know.

Your life can change in the span of a few hours
You can leave to go somewhere, and come back without power.
It feels hopeless, woeful, so lost in the pain
And for those same people who hurt you, you feel disdain.

But, my emotions will not take me, not this day
I'll keep my head up, in hopes I can try again
And hope that one day I'll be able to say
That I love you again.
