Bittersweet ..
To say I'm disappointed is putting it too light
As I'm paused with my reaction
Taken by what you've said
Reasons now coming to my attention
.. the thought..So many times I've let you slip through my fingers ..
Always reaching back out
Some how .. always held a piece of you.
Carried it
Guarded it
Helped me cope just within remember what you were to
me.. and after all these years.
A wasted thought
A wasted memory
Still left feeling this way
Now I believe .. I better let you go..
No more holding on to ..what if's with you.
It's time
Timings perfect for this
Yes,I think this is what hurt is.
This feeling that I'm feeling within
No emotion to share
No words to plea
As I ache and pause for air
No appetite as the after taste sits and sours in my mouth.
For I understand now
As the fact of the whole matter slaps me in the face

I'll force myself to push forward knowing it's just better off.
