Prolonging the Inevitable


Do you truly miss him

Or do you just miss 

Having someone’s company

Out of fear of being alone 

Do you truly want to stay

Or are you just scared 

That you’ll never find another

Who will ever truly love you 

Out of fear of the unknown 

Darling, let me remind you

You’re just prolonging the inevitable 

And wasting your life away 

 

Follow your intuition 

Don’t stay with him out of fear

You must make this transition 

To make everything clear

Don’t let this unknowing 

Keep you from growing

You must take risks 

To keep moving forward 

Believe in yourself 

With all your heart

At any moment 

You can begin a new start
