A Love Game

broken to pieces ..
falling apart
still standing today with this broken heart
letting you go .. and still holding on
makes me a bit weaker
and you somehow strong.
i guess the clock ticking is all out of ticks..
because this last chance was the last that you'd get.
no harm .. no foul 
in loves hateful game
of take it or leave ..
you left all the same.
im done with the tears.. and the wishing and dreams
of one day believing there could be a you and me
you .. without a doubt
are my greatest fear...
for having you around always brings me cheer
but as you wander off .. and set forth on life
you leave me behind.. to give up the fight
this path you have chosen is the best path for you
now i have to find the best path for me too.
just leave here knowing you impacted a life
that forever will change with you in mind
not in a bad way ..
nor hurtful at all..
just remember you are the one who made me happiest off all.
i live with the choice to let you be set free..
tho i would never claim that you belonged to me 
you only get one go on what you see fit..
i hope you can find and go after it.
