Taking backwards steps
Every few feet
Looking longingly
At where failure and you meet
You dropped a little back
When I walked straight on
Didn't even notice
Until you were long gone
I'd never turn back now
You're too far behind
You sit a single thought
In the back of my mind
When something good happens
That's when you flood through
To bring to mind how
I ******** up everything I do
When I think we should try again
I realize you're so over me
It's the most obvious, painful thing
That I can ever see
The only real love I had
That held me so close, so long
It never struck me I would hold
Right back just this strong
Long after you've let me go
I cling to some last shred
A note in my pocket
The words well known and read
Just a distant reminder
Of how I want things to be
Searching for something better
Than what you were with me
Such high standards
So many people fall
Hope the perfect one
Is somewhere in them all
You find yourself for once
You know I've got your back
Moving on while holding up
What the hole in my life lacks.

- I think its good. Not the best. Maybe you can go back and read it once more. Things don't flow very well. I get the concept. Kind of.... I give it a 3/5
