Before It Gets Deeper

Let's end it right now before it gets deeper and we won't hold on delusion... would you rather feel the agony of pain, or accept this goodbye and leave? I've tried to say it aloud, but courage was missing... I wanted to shout and cry, and admit we should break up to avoid many painful memories with tears. Were you not reading the signs on this loveless face? Wasn't it kind of suspicious why I didn't touch you enough when darkness drew near... felt so rejected and unloved? It's morning and you are sleeping, chasing new dreams, I must go so silently... oh, forgive me, love I cannot see you shiver as sad words cause a heart-break. I didn't wish it had turned out the way it just did, isn't it better to let go than be deluded? Look me in the eye and end it before it gets deeper. Written by Andrew Crisci for Russell Sivey's contest, " Relationships Breakups "
