High Hopes.

I don't wish to disappoint you, 

or anyone else who might have ever had that thought

But empty promises and false hopes are as good as none

I would know, I've felt them before

You don't have to go through that.

If anything I need to honestly tell you: 

I might never be who you want me to be

and I'm sorry for that.

Time is what I need, a lot of it

And that is something I will not ever ask of anyone to sacrifice for me.

"I'm Sorry"

is perhaps the only thing I have the right to say now

I know it might not be what you want to hear

but as of right now, that's all I have

To not let you have to feel what I once felt:

It's all I can do.
