Forgive me for having to leave you behind.
You weren’t ready to grow and move past all the obstacles in that part of your life.
I tried to wait but time doesn’t stand still for absolutely no one.
Life happens and I tried a few different paths.
Pulling my own weight was challenging enough
You can play the blame game.
Curse me for not holding your hand every step of the way.
It took me a long time to realize,
I’m not responsible for what you decide. οΏΌ
I can lend a hand.
Even listen to you for a while.
I find it’s more out of pity these day.
Memories of us are a blur.
You’re still unchanged.
What a shame,
you blame others
for staying in the same place.
Bits of things that pop into this mind. 
Very well written all emotions in one poem
