It quickly became clear that I had to stop the chase
So I turned my back and felt the tears stream down my face
I didn't want to let go, to move on to some new boy
To show another love and admiration
But it became apparent, like when the sun's fingers touch my skin, that I had to.
So I began to walk and let myself crumble, let my walls tumble
I tried hard not to trip and fumble, but I failed and stumbled
I had to look back, just had to. Would I my atoms change form and become Chloride and Sodium, bond together to turn me to a pillar of salt? Would looking into his eyes halt my heart and turn in cold as my muscles, bones, and blood turned to rough granite?
I turned to face him, turned to his direction
The chance of stay live was grim but I need to see his complexion
And I saw it
And I saw him
And I saw his eyes
And.....
