Paradox Of Life

It's Me, I'm Sorry

I'm sorry, my love, but I can't go on,
I don't know why or how it's gone,
But the feelings I had, they're no longer there,
Did you do something wrong? No, I swear.

You've been perfect, always by my side,
I'm the one with the problem, I can't hide,
I sabotage the best thing I ever had,
I'm sorry, it's me, I feel so bad.

You're perfect, believe me, it's true,
But perfection alone won't see us through,
My heart stopped beating, desire faded away,
Does love truly fade or is it just me, I say.

Perhaps love does fade, like a dying light,
Maybe familiarity stole our delight,
Isn't love about mystery, a flame to ignite,
Once the mystery's gone, is there nothing in sight?

I apologize, I know I'm lost in thought,
Sabotaging happiness, as I've always sought,
We must part ways, before it turns bitter,
I don't want to hurt you, not tomorrow, not ever.

Let's end it today, before it gets rough,
Though it pains me, it's time to say enough,
Please find it in your heart to forgive,
You'll forever be cherished, as long as I live.

I'm sorry, dear heart, for this painful decree,
But this love we had, it's no longer for me,
Farewell, my love, our journey is done,
You'll always hold a place in my heart, the one.
