Letting Go

Folder: 
saying goodbye



I have to let you go

I have to be free of your

dough - - - Nuts - - -Sweet

Now you wean me off

ARRRGH! Withdrawal pains

I would rather do it cold turkey!

Glad for my restrain

Grateful I did refrain

From complete disclosure

Leading to exposure

Then Goosebumps

for I would be colder

Than I am now

Do you understand?

I have to let you go

I fall too easily

I must not Waverley

Back down my subtle pursuit

For I am not ready

I cannot handle

This wax dripping candle

of love I feel

Foolishly too soon,

too hot to hold

I must let it go.



Was I the foolish one

You never let me in

I was an address with no name

No telephone

No call

Why not?

I have indirectly

given you mine

hoping you would call

but you never did

lapping up the secret attention

you spared me.

I was so exited about you

Were you ever excited about me?
