Refusing Goodbye

Folder: 
Break Up/Rejection

Your heart is not open, so I've had to leave.

You said you needed time and space to breathe.



The spell has been broken but I love you still.

The memories of what we shared, I cannot kill.



Your freedom will come when I learn to let go.

I'll leave your side when I learn to say no.



I wish you would still love me, forever more.

But I'm laying here, with my heart badly torn.



I've tried to hate you, and love another man.

But everything reminds me of us, hand in hand.



I hope we're still friends, I'd hate to lose you.

But I must realise we're not one, but two.

This reminds me of a relationship I once had. My ex had it all planned out how we'd get marry, have kids, have a house, and all kinds of things. One day, he came out and told me he loved me. That took my breath away. It was short lived though as I slowly watched him drift away. He refused to let me continue to get to know him, help him, love him. Then, there was the day where he told me that he loved me, but needed space. I hated it, but I knew if it was meant to be I had to let go and I did. We reconciled a time or two, but it was never the same. I couldn't ever let go of the pain he put me through or trust him not to do it again. I'm a stronger person now from it and have learned a lot. I just hope that you grow from this instead of harvesting the negativity inside.

broken hearts heal only with the passage of times. But often it helps when the two remain as freinds.
