Drifting Apart

It's not really the right day to say this.
I know it isn't
But
These days
Every time we touch
My skin crawls.
It wasn't like this before

I shudder at the thought of being close to you.
I wish to end this nonsense.
It's easy to see
That we have drifted apart

The love we shared long ago
Doesn't exist anymore.
I apologize
For the thousandth time.
But I don't think
That our love
Can ever be resurrected.

No matter how hard we try
We will only
Become more distant.

So lets stop
And give this shit a rest.

The sky will look more clear from now on
I promise you this.
It is the only
Guarantee I can give.
The dark clouds will part
And a new path will be seen

No longer will I linger
On our old memories.
Where the thought of you
Gave me butterflies in my stomach.

It hurts to see your face
And know that my love for you has died.

As we walk on our own paths,
I hope to see you again.
To check on you
And see if everything is alright.
I feel as though I owe you that much,
For all the pain I made you go through
Because of my
Merciless heart.

Will you forgive me?
By the end of the day,
Maybe by our lifetime,
I know that you will.
You won't stand to hate me.
It's one of the impossibilities of the world.

The attraction you say
That brings us together
has been nullified.
It isn't there.

I want to rocket high into the sky.
While you say that my place is on the ground.
How am I to stay with you
When I won't be able to achieve pure happiness.

With you, I won't succeed.
That is an unfortunate given.

I truly wish for you to see another person.
For us to remain friends,
If possible at all.
Please,
Don't Hate Me...
