the truth is,
i've decided
to fall out of love
with you.

leaving all the chances
i thought i could make.

for i've come to realize
that you'll never see me
the way i see you.

and for once,
i'm fine with how things are.
although it hurts to know
that the light i shined upon your face
would continue to fade even more.

i will move on.

to leave the unsent letters behind
and the love poems i've come to write,
the eyes that seemed to shine,
the kindness that swayed me.

i'll finally be letting you go.

so, let another unrequited love
come to a close.
