Leave...I don’t want to see you again....
after all this pain...

I used to cry on your shoulders when I felt pain…
I used to find peace in your arms when I was insecure...
I used to find warmth in your kisses when I felt cold....

But now, cant you see that every thing in you has changed
I hardly know you anymore....

Your eyes are not showing love as before...
your touches have become so cold....
even your kisses are loosing their warmth…

I just want you to leave.... without apologizing or saying a word....
I'm asking you to leave but deep down it's too hard on me to let you go....

but this is the only choice I have....
this is the only solution to get rid of all this pain....
the pain of loosing your love day after a day....
this is the only way to move on...and to start over again...
a new life without your love and care...

but I want you to know that even if you leave
even if you go…
you will always have a piece of my heart...
