Never Meant to Hurt You

Whispers in the twilight,

Promises left unspoken,

I never meant to cast a shadow,

On the love we once awoken.

I see the stars are fading,

In the silence of the night,

The echoes of our laughter,

Haunt me, and it doesn't feel right.

I walked a path unwinding,

Chasing dreams I couldn't hold,

But every step I've taken,

Left you lonely, left you cold.

And now I stand here broken,

With pieces of my heart,

The truth is like a token,

It's tearing us apart.

I never meant to hurt you,

I never meant to break,

The gentle trust we built,

With every promise we would make.

I wish I could rewind time,

And hold your hand once more,

But now I'm lost in shadows,

And you're the light I can't ignore.

Remember all the sunsets,

Where we carved our names in sand,

The future painted brightly,

Together, side by side we’d stand.

But life has a way of changing,

It spins us out of control,

Now the love that drew us nearer,

Feels like an aching hole.

I’m haunted by the whispers,

Of every word I said,

The weight of my decisions,

Filling up my heart with dread.

I never meant to hurt you,

I never meant to break,

The gentle trust we built,

With every promise we would make.

I wish I could rewind time,

And hold your hand once more,

But now I'm lost in shadows,

And you're the light I can't ignore.

Can we find the way back,

To the love that used to shine?

Or are we just two strangers,

In a world that’s out of line?

I’ll carry all the memories,

And earn your heart again,

If hope can rise from ashes,

Then maybe we can mend.

I never meant to hurt you,

That truth will ever stay,

But if love can still be patient,

Then I’ll find a way to say,

I promise you forever,

No shadows on my part,

I just need more time to show you,

I never meant to break your heart.
