You may hold my hand
You may kiss my lips
But inside I can tell you aren't in our land
You look at her and over nothing you trip
Why do you stay? Is it bad I want you to leave?
Yes I love you but I want you to be happy
Even though if you left I would grieve
I keep my distance sometimes, just not to be clingy
One day you're staring
I couldn't take it any more
"Derek your feelings you're barring
I'm leaving you." I said with throat sore.
He looks at me with hurt in his eyes and asked,
"Was it something I did? Was It something I said?"
"You love her and it's time to let your feelings unmask.
Don't think that I am mislead.
Now go to her and don't be shy,
be honest and be true."
I said with a sigh.
When he walked away I can't say that I didn't feel a little blue.
That very next morning I got a letter
Creamy white paper signed in black ink
What it said was bitter,
"Kate you are wrong, that girl and me have no link.
I actually loved you
I thought you felt the same.
But yesterday spoke what is true
You could never love me you thought it was a game.
You thought I would look at other girls
When all I really wanted was you
I know you thought I looked at other pearls
But I was afraid to find the truth that inside me grew
You never loved me, you only used me
You never cared for me, that I now know
But I keep hoping that would change you see?
But the truth broke into seeds and was sown
Yesterday was the best day of my life
I don't have to put up with you pretending anymore
I don't have to put up with your strife
Shouldn't I be glad? Why is my throat sore?
I feel like crying but I dare not
Knowing you would never spill your tears for me when due
I refuse to just as I aught
But one thing I have to say is I did, do, and always love you
But also that we can never be together again.
Goodbye my love, goodbye my heart
I hope we can both find zen
Again with my heart I will never part."
I sat still for a moment before tears ran down
It was then I felt the most wonderful and disatrious feeling
I knew it was love but I still wanted to fight the frown
I felt my heart thaw then continue to bleeding
~Sorry this isn't the greatest. I was looking up some of my old works and found it so I thought I'd share it(:~
