Found and lost!

I’ve made a lot of mistakes which I regret,
But I’ve made the biggest one yet,
By saying something I’ve said to very few,
That I care too much about you!

For once, it hard to describe how I feel,
To someone who’s helped me keep an even keel,
I was alone, abandoned by everyone,
But you were there when I needed someone!

I troubled you, but you tolerated me,
I irritated you, but you humoured me,
I bothered you, but you helped me,
Everytime I called, you were there for me!

But I was blind, and failed to see the bar,
And carelessly, I stepped too far!
i looked back and saw that it was too late,
I had lost, unknowingly tempting fate!

The crutches supporting me suddenly disappeared,
As the old canyon below me, reappeared.
Once again, without hope I fall,
With nobody to hear when I call!

My eyes drip water like a sieve,
As I prepare to take my leave.
This isn’t how I wanted it to end,
By losing a dear, close friend!

You mean a lot to me!
I’ll miss you!
