your hair smelled of vanilla
every single day which i loved you.

but today,
it had a hint of daggers in it too.

for when i breathed in
with my arms holding tight;
afraid to let go,
the sweet scent
went straight past everything else

and stabbed my heart.

oh, the pain i felt,
knowing i was leaving you.

i'll carry the stinging pain
of your goodbye
forever in my heart

let me hurt
it's better than
moving on and

forgetting
you.
