a feeling inside

I know not when it began

I’ve seen how it will end

You’ll tire of the me I am

You’ll not even call me friend

You’ll think you wasted all this time

On someone you chose to love

You’ll wonder why she didn’t see

She was someone you’d take care of

All the disagreements

Will now come to an end

No more trips from south to north

No more money needed to spend

Yes you’ll always love me

And I will love you too

But you can only take so much

So you will do what you must do

You’ll walk away and close the book

The chapter is complete

Two worlds will be shattered

Two less hearts will beat

I’ve tried to be what you needed

But failed along the way

Tried to make you happy

But there’s nothing left to say

I see you going your way

I see me going mine

I see a trail of tears

We will leave behind

I know you tried to love me

The best way that you could

But now I’ve come to realize

For you I am no good

I hope some day you’ll look back

And think of me and smile

Think of all the good times

That lasted quite a while

A red string that once united us

Has stretched so very far

It now is very fragile

And brought us where we are

I’ve seen it in my dreams

I know what you will do

So as you walk away

Please remember I love you

Always, G
