Aug 2010
You enticed me at first
With mystery and promises of adventure.
I entered your world,
Leaving mine behind, on hold.
I embraced you, you embraced me,
But it was a cautious embrace,
We were strangers after all,
Enjoying good food and fun times,
But reluctant to reveal too much,
Keeping personal secrets hidden deep inside.
With time those truths have crept out into the light,
We’ve shared our hope and despair,
Many smiles and tears.
But I’m tired now,
I’ve played this game too long.
I love your random craziness,
But I need the comforts of home.
Don’t try to make me stay.
We always knew this wouldn’t last forever.
But I want you to know that you’ve changed me,
And I’ll never forget you,
And I’ll be back someday.
We’ll both be different then.
再见
