So there you were
My heart finally ready
to let go. To free myself
from your agony.
"It's not that I don't want
to love you. I can't" you had
said. I wasted so many tears
on my broken heart.
Now it seems your world
is Shattered. All that you
knew has slipped from
your giants grasp.
I cast aside my heartache,
No longer needed. I
am so much stronger
in these days.
I offer my friendship
saying I am well enough
now to offer this one thing
to you.
Your expression changes,
to that of obvious hurt
and my heart again sinks
was I supposed to wait?
Did you now want the love
that you had chilled and
hardened with your
cold words?
I really want to love you
I just can't , I think
as I close my eyes and
turn from you.
I want so much to
be the friend you wanted
when you broke my heart
but the table has turned
on you now.
I know that behind my
strength I am still fragile
If you just asked I
may still fall.
The evening departs
The moment I look into
your sad dark eyes, I know
it is still there.
I walk away the thoughts
racing through subdues mind.
all I can say as I turn back is,
It's better this way.
