The Truth of Giving You Up

Location

I was close

So close

To letting you go

Then you came back

Back into my life

Told me how you love me

How you've missed me

So I return those truths

Hope boiling over

Now I sit here

Crying again

You force me to pretend

I HATE YOU

As I did back then

It was easy

So easy

To look past you

But you broke my mask again

Let me see through my fear

So now I let you go

walk away

please

I know full well 

This will break my heart

My soul

And I will hide my tears 

In this broken shell.
