I know I had to do it,
That I had to move away,
You had no intentions,
Of doing what I desired,

I know it seemed immature to you,
You had said it was stupid,
But that was what I needed,
Because I couldn’t let myself trust you,
Couldn’t’ let myself open up,
To anyone else,
Because I was so scared you were doing me over,
Like the last guy before you,

It took all the strength I had,
And what little I had left,
To say goodbye,
Instead of saying it was ok,

It hurt’s to know that you were a good guy,
And yet you still did the same thing to me,
The worst part of it all,
Is that I had thought I’d be alright,
Once it was all over,
All the fear and sleepless nights,
I’ve only drifted down lower,
Into the cold dark earth,

My hand’s chained down,
And my wing’s pulled out to the open winds,
So that all could see my shame,
See the wonderful colors they once were,
And the way that they are now shredded,
I had thought I’d be alright,
Thing’s have only gotten worse,

You told me to hold onto my spark,
Even though no one can tell,
It has died,
For the final time,
The spark and spirit I once had,
Is gone and dead,

Now the wind licks at my torn up wings,
And the cold of the world,
Touches my once warm insides,
I can’t forgive myself for waiting so long,
And I can’t forgive you,
For showing me that I really am,
Not the girl that you loved.

I’m good during the day. But at night I wait.I wait for the one who’ll never return.
