Walk Away.

When the pain got unbearable, and he couldn’t take it anymore,

He wanted out, an escape route...an open door.

But what he didn’t realize was that he’d be leaving her behind with a heavy price to pay,
Its hard to say if he cared or not, because he simply walked away.

Even through all the pain, with a smile on his face he would say,
Don’t worry love, we’ll have our time im sure….someday.
And she believed him...believed him, even though it felt worse than hell,
But whether or not it was weighing him down, she honestly couldn’t tell.

She knew he loved her,
but she just wished it was enough to keep them strong..
Because she'd gotten so used to him,
that being without him always seemed horribly wrong.

Whatever happened in the day,
he was always the first to know.
So when he left, she was so appallingly stuck,
that she had no idea who to turn to, or where to go.

Times change, people move on, but broken promises and memories of the past always seem to remain,
like little whispers of the subconscious mind, etching themselves into our brain.

At times she wished she could hate him, not because she regretted all of the things they shared,
But because if she didn’t hate him, the only alternative was to continue loving him,
and it wasn't right for her to keep letting that mess with her head.

So she finally decided to leave it all behind and breathe in
to let him go and let the best of her stay...
to never let herself get carried away with her emotions again..
to turn around just like he did...
...And simply walk away.
