It hurts in waves
   the breaking of 'us'
 You took something beautiful
now watch it rust

adorned in our tears or maybe just mine
  You’ve gained freedom, I’ve gained time

I let you in,
Then watched you leave
      Hoping with childlike naivety
You’d change your mind and come back to me
 
 Your ‘necessary’ step is abandonment,
 It tastes bitter, but I guess 
suitable company for the ache in my chest
 
My heart protests, while my mind cannot
 logic is useful, feelings are not
    I’ve asked my questions, you’ve said your piece
I hope our departure grants you relief
