I Will Walk Away


Because I love you, I will always be there for you,

Like a cell phone with unlimited battery,

Or your favorite movie on a dumpster-fire day.

 

Because I love you, I will always cherish you,

Like a lucky charm you don't go without,

Or a memory of times when everything was right.

 

Because I love you, I will always make you feel better,

Like a cool breeze on a blistering day,

Or the realization you can sleep in on a Sunday morning.

 

Because I love you, I will walk away,

There is someone who will love you better,

And not make stupid analogies to explain it.

 

Because I love you, I will walk away, 

And allow someone to love you better.

I'm a senior in high school and I'm looking forward to building my skills as a poet before I head college. My style right now is spoken word but I'm hoping to expand my horizons. "Either write things worth reading or do things worth writing."- Ben Franklin
