Loaning Love

Who was I to make you want I know that I act nonchalant Wanting what you can not have Loaning love, no permanent path Build a wall protect your heart I told you this from the very start Can’t you see my heart’s not true You should do what’s best for you Turn and walk, give me space Leave me here, your steps retrace I’ll only hurt you, leave you blue Break your heart before we’re through Don’t know how this came to be But I know my heart is free Can’t be tamed, can’t be caged Sorry I can’t help assuage I’ve purged the doubt, purged the guilt My spirit free my soul rebuilt I’m doing what is best for me Sorry you’re hit with debris

I love this, its very thoughtful but sometimes when you really love someone a little debris and heart ache along the way doesnt really seem to matter... Great write!
