Can't let you leave

by mary   Apr 12, 2004


I hate this situation
And the stage that we’re in
Its all confusion
And I’m so caught in
You know how much I love you
Even after we broke up
You know I give in to you
And that screws everything up
The only time you call me
Is because one thing’s on your mind
You could care less about me
And how I feel inside
I can’t resist
I can’t say no
Because that’s the only time I get to see you
And I can’t let you go
They tell me to be strong
But I’m way too in love
To just move along
Whenever you call
I try my hardest to say no
Then I look at your picture on the wall
And I couldn’t stand to see you go
So you just take advantage of me
Because you know how I feel
And I keep on letting you
Because that’s the only way the pain will heal
It hurts me more each time I see you
Because the more I let you in
Whatever you do, I’m letting you
How long will we keep this up?
Now we’re nothing
And we used to be in love
The more I tell you how much you mean to me
You use it to your advantage
Because you know I’m weak
I know I should stop and tell you “no!”
But there’s something about you
That won’t let me go
If I tell you to stop taking advantage of me
I’ll never see you again
And out of my life you’ll leave
Every time I see you it’s like a hundred knives stabbing me
But I let it go
Because I couldn’t bare to see you leave

    mARY AS always, I love your work. Keep writting I want to see more, and I totally agree with you, a lot of us go through this because we're afraid that if we say what we feel, they'll let us go. But if they let you go, they never loved you, and you don't deserve to love someone who doesn't love you back.
