I Won't Be

Why do we need to stay,

When our lives don't hold a space

Mine doesn't, and neither does yours,

Yet, we stay, as if cutting off is worse.


We knew the truth, didn't we?

Deep down, I believe you knew it too

We were friends for a reason,

And we stayed friends for a season.


What makes us write new scenes,

After the play's end, as the curtains are drawn

Which moment was so singularly cherishable?

I've tried finding it and haven't had luck.


So, I'll write it down,

A reminder for you and me

I won't be, yes,

I won't be at all.


I won't be staying for much longer,

It's about time the door needs to be shut forever.
