Stopping time


Time keeps passing me by. I eat, sleep, and breath thinking of only you. I turn around and there you are. I read a book and there you are. I don't know where to turn to. I feel you and only you and cannot concentrate anymore. I think of the times when I used to see and not feel the pain of being constantly reminded and I cannot any longer. What should I do, but to leave here. I cannot prevent what happens next after I make these choices but I know that for me it is the right thing to do, so goodbye and hello to my next adventure.
