When Roads Part

It gives me a little chill Cause I loved you too dearly my friend But I won’t hold on to you Cause impermanence is the rule of the world And I expect nothing to stay. You have a life, a world very different Than mine. A lover next door And a family two towns away. They love you. I have a lover, who loves me too Far away. And would never be mine. I have a family somewhere. Just was never was close to them. And you my friend, I gave a piece of my heart. Not knowing we need to part So soon. You hold too many of my secrets. Secrets, I know not why I shared. Alas it’s so easy to form a bond When love comes for free! You ask me, if it's okay if you leave How can I tell you to stop You made a choice, not for me to change And I'd do nothing for you to stay. But, it’s time to step back Before I break my heart For the millionth time. Bidding farewell is getting tiring. Too much wounds left unhealed Perhaps now I should be numb to pain. But despite of all that,my friend I love you dearly And I wish you the best.
