If You Don't I'll
Understand

Why did I tell you to
go
When I wanted you to stay
Didn't I realize I'd be sorry
After I sent
you away?
Why didn't I accept
The love you offered me
Was it I was
too blind
To open my eyes and see?
Is it too late to make
Amends for what I have done
Or
regretfully is it possible
Another chance, there is none?
No matter what you decide
Please know I love you
Forgiving
my mistake I realize
Would be hard for you to do.
If you don't, I'll understand.....
