Time to go

by Johanna   Oct 2, 2007


You have been my hero for a long time now, for that I have to bend my head down and bow.
Because when I met you I was a total mess, nothing more, nothing less.
But you looked in my eyes and saw something in me; I could not imagine what you could see.
I was lost in space and reality; I did not know who I could be.
But you made me open up to you in every way,
I said things to you I never thought I would say.
You made me believe in love and life, and when we fought it felt like a knife.
I knife that penetrated all through me, I didn't want to be free.
Because being free meant being without you, I didn't want that to be true.
So I fought so long to keep you here, to have you with me, really near.
Because I loved the way you smelled and felt, if love was karate you would have a black belt.
But all those time you weren't here, made me see something really clear.
Even though I hate when you're not with me,
I can't stop thinking that maybe that's how it should be.
We've spend all this time, these years together, we thought that it would last forever.
But we have to face facts that we're not the same, and it's not on one of us to blame.
Because we have saved each others lives together, and we know that now and ever.
But now it's time to say goodbye, and I know that we don't have to lie.
When we say I still love you, we're not lying it's all true.
But the years have past and we've grown apart, too see this you don't have to be smart.
So we say goodbye with some pride to go, we've got nothing but love to show.
Because we do love one to death, until the very last single breath.
But it's time now to go our different ways; we leave each other with dignity and grace.
Thank you for this time together, I will treasure it forever.
You saved my life more than one time, and I loved it when you were mine.
Because I feel and know that I saved you too, this love we had is and will always be true.
