I Would Have To Politely Turn You Away

And if you were to come crawling back to me now I would have to politely turn you away I have found one that can make my heart happy After you destroyed it I know it was with your best intentions in mind But I'm telling you if you would've held on to the love we shared The love you claimed to love with me You would have made us You found me after a dark time and you left me But only when you could see what it was You didn't take the time to understand You just knew that it was taxing and didn't want to try So if you were to show up on my doorstep tomorrow Asking me to love you again My response would be simple and short: "I never stopped loving you. But you destroyed me and I need better." Quietly I would close the door Sit behind it waiting for you to leave Begging the air around us to thin I would sit and cry Cry for you Because you lost something irreplaceable And it took too long to realize that My heart is finally happy again The pieces have been found and sewn back together You, you are a memory of my past A memory that teaches me every day And so if you were to come back now I would have to politely turn you away For reasons I have yet to understand
