Leave Me

How can you posses my mind?
I thought I had left you behind.
I thought I had finally moved on.
I thought you had finally gone.

Why are you still here?
Can’t you just leave me?
It pains me to see you there.
When can you just see?

I don’t want to hurt you.
I don’t want you to cry.
I don’t want you to be untrue.
All I want is to save your life.
From where you are heading,
Through the path you are dreading.
Protect you from what I did to you.
Just leave and forget; I need you to.

Can’t you open your eyes to see?
Staying with me, kills you.
You need to leave and forget me.
I love you, but that won’t do.

You need to leave,
To finally be free.
I will join you again one day,
Just for now, flee far away.
