How can I leave?


The hardest part of leaving you it seems,

The thing that’s tearing me apart at the seams,

Was letting go,

Because it was best for you; though,

It doesn’t feel like I should,

If this is truly the right thing to do dare I say good,

Then how can it hurt this much? 

How do i let go when your love has me in it’s cruel clutch? 

Why can’t I just turn this off and be done

It feels like my world is crumbling and I can’t seem to outrun,

This ocean of feelings and fears,

My vision clouded with tears,

All shed over loveing you,

What am I supposed to do?

It’s like a drop in the ocean,

A change in the weather, 

And still I was praying that you and me might end up together.
