He Forgot

Off in the distance,
There’s a feeling of death,
Someone’s left this world,
With at least one regret.

Sad and lonely with fear,
Someone has forgotten to care,
Too late now to turn back time,
Something he kept within his mind.

He forgot to say those precious words,
I’m sorry, accept those words I say,
Now it’s really a little too late,
He can’t return for he’s gone far away.

What could have been,
Will never be, it’s too late,
He set it aside day after day,
He thought that he could fool fate.

Off in the distance, there’s a dark sky,
Tears are being shed, don’t ask why,
No one thinks, they’ll soon forget
Hold back the words, they’ll soon regret.
