Poetry / Those awful little words

The way I feel is so sad and so real.
My heart aches from the pain
My thoughts scream out your name

Just hours ago
I heard your voice on the phone
And I can still remember the last words that you told.

It was silly of us to argue
I was wrong and I’m so sorry
I told you that I hated you

And said we shouldn’t be
And even after all of this
You still said that you loved me

Angry and frustrated
I quickly stopped the call
I swore I’d never see you

I refused to take your calls
That evening after I calmed down
I listened to your voicemail

You said you’d always love me
You said you’d never leave
You told me I was special

And you told me you forgave me
I realized that I missed you
I called you right away

I wanted us to be together
And to never  part
I smiled as you answered

But the voice it wasn’t yours
A stranger never heard before
A sense of fear came from his words

He told me he was sorry
He wished the worse was over
He told me of the Accident

That took your life forever
And as I listened to his words
My eyes began to swell

And all that I could remember
Was the last thing that was spoken
When I told you that I hated you

And I swore I’d never see you
If I knew that this would be
The last words we would share

I would have told you how I really felt
I would have told you I was wrong
I would have told you that I loved you

And that you were right all along
But now I’ll always remember
Those awful little words

The ones that I said to you
The night you left this world.
