The Final Reminder

“Walk away and never look back. Lend me your voice when it’s ready to laugh. But don’t say that you love me or hide because you’re ugly cuz you’ll drive anyone away. I love you and always will; when I turn you away, I’ll love you still. But your graffiti a’int art and you’ve covered my heart so I love you, but go. And don’t jump from that bridge; it’s talk like that that’s brought us to this. Let someone help you – do what I couldn’t do and I’ll love you from here. And no one will ever replace you; the best I can hope for is to make do. But you were never really here, so now you’re free, you’re clear don’t make me throw rocks at you."
