You weren't my forever love
It's unfortunate
I was ready to give away every part of me
But I'm glad I wasn't yet to the alter
With doubts in my heart
You deserve differently
I wasn't your missing part
I knew for so long it wasn't right
Blinded by my selfish heart
I wanted with every fiber of myself
For it to be you
But if I'm honest with myself
It was selfish love
It wasn't truly giving
And so I finally faced my demons
I made the choice to give you away
You deserve true happiness
Something I cannot give
Something I do not have
Because you mean the world to me
Hopefully this isn't the end of our passage
Hopefully we remain parallel side by side
But as friends not lovers
As I seek to meet your stride
And watch you walk toward your destiny
one step ahead of me
