Walk Away

by Beautiful Chaos   Jun 7, 2007


This truth I see inside your eyes,
Tells of when the love did die,
That silent night inside your head,
You closed your eyes and wished it dead.

Speak not of what you don't know,
What I'll feel or how I'll grow,
Because you decided long ago,
To walk on by and let me go.

Hearts will mend and tears will dry,
There'll come a day when I won't cry,
And then you'll see what's come of me,
You'll wish you never set me free.

Don't think that I won't live on,
Turn around and I'll be gone,
Remember what you said to me,
All you'll haves a memory.

Speak not of what you don't know,
Where I'll be or how I'll grow,
You decided long ago,
You don't need me anymore....

    It's heartbreaking when we realize the love we once knew is gone. The old adage If you love someone set them free, comes to mind. This is so true, many times it is better for us in the long run.

    My favorite lines............

    Because you decided long ago,
    To walk on by and let me go

    This reminds me so much of my ex finace
    I think for both of our sakes he said many times to me for me to leave, that I wasn't happy. He had his demons and I had mine. I thought I loved him but found it was more infatuation for the person he was when sober. If you truly love someone you will weather every storm. I was not willing to do that. I grew from those experiences and realized you can just walk away. Beautiful write. Congrats on winning with this entry. I truly loved it.
